very well ended in the the great white North against the Toronto Blue
Jays, as they loss the series to the last place Blue Jays. The loss
moves the Yankees to (80-73) on the season, which is 3.5 games behind
the Texas Rangers and Tampa Bay Rays for the final two Wild Card

Yankees Starter Hiroki Kuroda was in
trouble all night long, but despite clearly not being on his game
again he manged to keep the Yankees close. In the third inning the
Blue Jays would finally get to Kuroda, as Jose Reyes hit a RBI double
to score Anthony Gose, and then Reyes would score on a RBI ground out
by Brett Lawrie. Gose would touch home plate again in the sixth
inning, as he hit a solo-home run, which was his second of the
season. Kuroda would finish going six innings allowing three runs on
eight hits, and four walks, while striking out seven batters.
