Toronto Takes 2 of 3 from NY

Game 1 Yanks 11 Blue Jays 3

NY keeps its slim playoff hopes alive with a barrage of hits scoring 11 runs. Toronto starter Pete Walker was knocked out after 1 inning. Six other Toronto pitchers were also unsuccessful slowing down the Yankee attack. All but one Yankee starter had hits, and Jake Gibbs giving Thurman Munson a days rest hit a three homer for his first of the year. Meanwhile Steve Kline picked up an easy win spreading out 8 Toronto base hits.

Game 2 Blue Jays 9 Yanks 3

Blue Jays behind left hander Ted Lilly easily defeat the Bombers. Lefties seem to be silencing the Yankee bats and this was no different, as they could only gather three hits. Meanwhile the Toronto bats were teeing off on Mel Stottlemyer who has been faltering during the stretch run.

Game 3 Blue Jays 6 Yanks 2

Another Lefty and another loss for the Yanks. Gustavo Chacin pitching for Toronto spreads out 4 hits, only allowing 2 runs. At the same time all the Toronto batters were feasting on Yankee pitching. The best being Frank Catalanotto who had 6 hits in 11 AB with 2 homeruns for the series.
