Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was the hero the Blue Jays needed on Wednesday night.
The 20-year-old rookie phenom — the No. 1 prospect in baseball per MLB Pipeline — hit a go-ahead three-run homer in the bottom of the eighth to help lift the home team to an 11-7 win over the Yankees at Rogers Centre, giving Toronto back-to-back wins for the first time in more than a month.
