The New York Yankees host the Toronto Blue Jays for a must-win ALDS Game 3 tonight at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx.
After dropping both games in Toronto, New York faces elimination and must win to extend the series to a Game 4.
The first two games were one-sided. Toronto outscored New York 23–8 in total. The the Blue Jays’ lineup overpowered Yankee pitching and rookie Trey Yesavage dominated Game 2 with 5.1 hitless innings and 11 strikeouts.
Tonight, the Yankees put their fate in the hands of Carlos Rodón (LHP, 18–9, 3.09 ERA), who comes in on the heels of his best season in New York. Rodón faced the Boston Red Sox in the Wild Card Series, allowing three runs over six innings in Game 2. Against Toronto this season, he made two starts, allowing four earned runs over 10 innings.
Toronto turns to Shane Bieber (RHP, 4-2, 3.57 ERA), a trade deadline acquistion from the Cleveland Guardians. Bieber made only seven starts in the regular season after recovering from Tommy John surgery, with only one against a top-tier MLB lineup. Still, he comes in with postseason experience, including against the Yankees, limiting them to just two runs over 5.2 innings in the ALDS in 2022.
Prediction
Prediction: Yankees 4, Blue Jays 3
Bieber can rise to the moment, but tonight, the Yankees have their pride on the line. They may not win the series, but expect them to take tonight’s game with some late-inning clutch hitting.
