New York Takes On Toronto As CC Sabathia Looks To Get Back In The Win Column
Monday night it was Toronto who was hitting the long ball as they hit three home runs to top New York 7-1.
Tuesday night though the role was reversed as New York hit five home runs as they beat Toronto 11-5.
Aaron Judge started his afternoon with a long batting practice drive that destroyed a flatscreen television, then went deep twice in game action to claim the Major League home run lead as the Yankees flexed their muscles in an 11-5 victory over the Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium.

Brett Gardner homered twice off Mat Latos and Aaron Hicks added a two-run blast as the Yanks matched their season high with five homers, pounding out a season-high 16 hits to help Masahiro Tanaka win his fourth straight start and snap Toronto's three-game winning streak.

Will CC Sabathia pitch well enough to get the win? He has a record of 2-1 with an earn run average of 4.34 to go along with twenty strikeouts. He is coming off a loss to Baltimore where they hammered him for seven runs while he pitched 5/2/3 innings on April 28. In his last two starts, he has a record of 0-1 with a 9.28 earn run average. He will go up against Toronto right-hander Marcus Stroman who has allowed just two runs or less in his five starts this season but has little run support to show for it.
