Toronto Blue Jays defeat New York Yankees 4-3

The Toronto Blue Jays defeated the New York Yankees 4-3 at Yankee Stadium. Blue Jays pitcher Dylan Cease delivered a dominant performance, carrying a no-hitter into the seventh inning. His bid for a second career no-hitter ended with two outs in the seventh when Jazz Chisholm Jr. hit a single on his 106th pitch. Cease finished with 6.2 innings, eight strikeouts, and five walks.

The decisive blow came in the eighth inning via an eighth-inning home run by Nathan Lukes, who entered the game as a pinch hitter. The Blue Jays offense also saw contributions from George Springer, Charles McAdoo, and Kazuma Okamoto. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. returned to the lineup after successfully completing a seven-day concussion protocol, recording two hits in his comeback.

For the Yankees, starter Ryan Weathers exited in the fourth inning due to discomfort in his left forearm and elbow. He underwent imaging following the incident. Despite a two-run home run by Luis Garcia Jr. in the eighth, the Yankees were unable to overcome the deficit, ending their five-game winning streak.
