New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. admitted lingering motivation vs. the Blue Jays after Monday’s win due to 2025 elimination.

The Toronto Blue Jays last faced the Los Angeles Dodgers in a series last month and lost that set in a harsh reminder of the latest World Series, which reached extra innings in Game 7 before the reigning champions took the title away from the Blue Jays.

Toronto Blue Jays catcher Alejandro Kirk has been sidelined since April 3 due to a left thumb injury. He suffered a fracture and dislocation that required surgery, and the recovery process has kept him out far longer than the team hoped.

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Max Scherzer had some news to share on Monday.

Cody Bellinger and Jazz Chisholm Jr. hit two-run homers off Yariel Rodríguez in the seventh inning, and the New York Yankees survived another shaky performance by David Bednar to beat the Toronto Blue Jays 7-6.
