Play ball!

The players have already warmed up and the fans have been present in Yankee Stadium and its surroundings.
Everything is ready for the start of the fourth game of the series between the New York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays.
Play ball!

The two teams have met 676 times in the history of Major League Baseball.

The balance leans favorably on the side of the Bronx Bombers with 371 wins and 305 losses, in addition to playing at home they have a lot in their favor with 197 wins and 142 losses.

Let's make it 8 in a row!

Nestor Night in the Bronx.

The Toronto Blue Jays have been arguably the best offensive team in MLB, having a .786 OPS this season. One big reason has been the fact that they lead the majors with 213 total home runs this season.

Toronto has been doing a great job offensively the last 30 days (27 games) as they have a .257 / .329 / .453 bar line with 4.7 runs per game in that stretch.

First baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr has been incredible at the plate this year, as he has a 1,010 OPS with 40 homers and 98 RBIs with four stolen bases in five attempts.

The Toronto Blue Jays must maintain the level and continue to hit as well as they have done so far, this way they can easily reach the playoffs.

The New York Yankees have been an average offensive team this season as they are 17th in the majors with a .721 OPS so far. This team does not get many hits as their 1,071 total hits this season (7.76 hits per game) is the fifth-lowest in baseball. New York’s offense has been ice cold in their last five games as they have a .500 OPS (last in MLB during that span) with three runs per game. Right fielder Aaron Judge has been hitting well this season as he has a .902 OPS with 30 homers and 75 RBI with six swipes in seven attempts. If the Yankees can snap out of their funk, they can win here.
