Yankees’ offense busts out for 16 runs in rout of Blue Jays to snap four-game skid
NY Post
TORONTO — Nearly a week’s worth of frustration came pouring out of the Yankees’ bats in the sixth inning Friday night.
And they didn’t stop there.
After using a six-run rally to take the lead in the sixth, the Yankees blew the doors off with a seven-run ninth inning to snap their season-high four-game losing streak in emphatic fashion with a 16-5 win over the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre.
“We always need a win,” said Juan Soto, who gave the Yankees the lead for good with a three-run shot in the sixth. “It’s been a little frustrating [lately], but it is what it is. We just forget about what happens in the past and we came out to play today and did our job.”
Putting together the kind of full-lineup outburst that they sorely needed, the Yankees (53-31) won for just the third time in their last 12 games to even the series entering the weekend.
Every member of the starting lineup recorded at least one hit and six of them had multi-hit nights as the Yankees pounded out 18 hits in total.
