The Toronto Blue Jays have surged to the top of the American League East after a dominant stretch of games, including a four-game sweep of the New York Yankees and a season-high 10-game winning streak. George Springer played a pivotal role, notably on Canada Day with a grand slam and seven RBIs in a 12-5 victory over the Yankees, and continued to deliver multiple home runs throughout the series. Addison Barger also contributed significantly with multiple home runs and clutch performances, including a walk-off single that extended the Blue Jays' winning streak. The Blue Jays' winning streak ended at 10 games following a 2-1 loss to the Chicago White Sox, just one shy of tying the franchise record. Meanwhile, the Yankees saw strong offensive efforts from Aaron Judge, who hit his 34th home run of the season and reached 350 career home runs faster than any player in MLB history, and Giancarlo Stanton, who returned from injury and hit multiple home runs, including key pinch-hit and three-run shots. The Blue Jays currently hold a 3.5-game lead over the Yankees in the AL East as they head into their next series against the Oakland Athletics.
