The New York Yankees (12-8) were unable to generate much offense as they fell to the Toronto Blue Jays (12-8), 6-1, in the series opener on Friday night at Yankee Stadium.
Oswaldo Cabrera provided the only run with his first home run of the season. Aside from that, the Yankees had four hits, all of which were singles.
Domingo Germán gave up a pair of two-run homers over six innings while walking two and striking out six.
Albert Abreu surrendered two runs over two innings, while Greg Weissert fired a scoreless frame.
The Yankees will try to bounce back and even the series on Saturday at 1:05 p.m. The pitching matchup will feature Gerrit Cole vs. Alek Manoah.
@fl1sports It’s safe to say these two teams don’t like each other. #VladdyJr #AnthonyRizzo #Yankees #BlueJays #YankeeStadium #Bronx #MLB #Baseball #Pitcher #GregWeissert #FYP #Toronto
