The Yankees’ postseason run hit its first bump north of the border as Toronto dominated Game 1 of the ALDS with a 10–1 victory at Rogers Centre. Despite the lopsided score, host Chris Nesi reminds fans that the effort on the field wasn’t nearly as bad as the final line suggested. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. put on a two-way clinic, flashing leather and launching a homer, while Alejandro Kirk surprised everyone with two of his own.
Luis Gil’s short outing forced the Yankees to tap deep into their bullpen—using six pitchers—and things unraveled from there. But even in the loss, Chris remains confident the Yankees will bounce back, predicting a four-game series win with Max Fried taking the mound against rookie Trey Yesavage in Game 2. With Rodón and Schlittler lined up for Games 3 and 4, the path to the ALCS is still wide open. Plus, Chris breaks down key at-bats, bullpen decisions, and why the offense must wake up fast if the Yankees want to “Chase for 28” to stay alive.
