Prediction
The Yankees continue to stay hot and have won 7 games in a row scoring an average of 8 runs per game in that strecht and are 9-7 vs Blue Jays this season. Luis Severino will start for the Yankees who was solid in his return vs Pirates allowing only 1 run across 5 innings pitched. The Blue Jays will send Kevin Gausman to the mound who has been up and down this season but has been very effective against the Yankees this season. This should be a close game as both starters will be solid on the mound so the best play for this game is the under.
