Pitching Matchups – Yankees vs Blue Jays
The New York Yankees (77-47), head north of the border, where they will face the Toronto Blue Jays (64-59), for a three game series. The last time these two teams met was in the first week of August (2,3,4), where the Blue Jays took the series two out of three.
Ivan Nova will be making his first Major League start against the Blue Jays. The right-hander was 12-3 with a 2.86 ERA in 23 starts for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, and he threw three scoreless innings in relief in one prior stint with the Yankees.
