Dylan Cease carries no-hitter into 7th inning as Blue Jays hang on for 4-3 win over Yankees
Toronto Blue Jays' Dylan Cease maintained a no-hitter through the seventh inning, only to see it end with a single by Jazz Chisholm Jr. in the 106th pitch of his 6 2/3 innings pitched. Nathan Lukes broke the Yankees' 4-3 tie with a walk-off homer in the eighth inning. Cease allowed two hits and five walks in the 6 2/3 innings, striking out eight.
The Blue Jays secured their win with a first RBI single from George Springer, a rookie Charles McAdoo single, and a pinch hit eighth-inning homer from Lukes. Tyler Rogers gave up a two-run homer to Luis García Jr. for the Yankees, while Louie Varland recorded his 29th save in 30 chances. New York starter Ryan Weathers left the game due to left forearm discomfort.
The Blue Jays' José Soriano (10-6, 3.23 ERA) will face Yankees' LHP Carlos Rodón (4-2, 3.22) in Sunday's series finale.
