In order to take the AL East lead away from the Toronto Blue Jays, the New York Yankees would need to sweep the division leaders. Playing the Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium would give the Bronx Bombers homefield advantage. Slated to oppose Toronto ace Kevin Gausman in the series opener Friday evening was Yankees rookie sensation Cam Schlittler. The top prospect has been absolutely electric since his major league debut. However, the rookie finally hit a speed bump against the Jays. Canadian sports giant Sportsnet shared via X (formerly Twitter) the moment when Schlittler was pulled after allowing four earned runs in under two innings. Expand Tweet

“The Yankees pull Cam Schlittler after 66 pitched in just 1.2 innings 😯,” posted the Canadian-based sports channel. “Blue Jays lead 4-0.”
