The Yankees beat the Blue Jays 9-6 in Game 3 on Tuesday night to extend the series to Game 4. New York trailed 6-1 after two and a half innings but scored eight unanswered runs to end the game. No need to panic for Toronto, as they still have a 2-1 series lead.
The Yankees open as -176 favorites for Game 4 on DraftKings Sportsbook, with the Blue Jays +144 road underdogs. The run total is set at O/U 8.5. The game is slated to start at 7:08 p.m. ET.
The Yankees are starting their rookie sensation Cam Schlittler in this one. Schlittler’s first career postseason start was a special one, leading New York to a pivotal Game 3 Wild Card win over the Red Sox. Schlittler pitched an eight-inning shutout, giving up no hits. He struck out 12 batters in his 107 pitches. Another performance like that on Wednesday would go a long way.
For the Blue Jays, manager John Schneider says they won’t announce a starting pitcher until Wednesday, but everyone is available.
The Blue Jays are still sizable favorites to advance, needing just one more win in this best-of-five series. They are -220 on DraftKings Sportsbook to move on to the ALCS, with the Yankees now +185 underdogs to win two straight games.
