Blue Jays at Yankees – ALDS Game 4 prediction: Odds, expert picks, starting pitchers, trends, and stats

After years of unlimited moments in the regular season, the defending and multi-time American League MVP finally had a moment in the postseason. Tuesday night, Aaron Judge homered to resuscitate the Yankees’ season rallying New York from a 6-1 deficit to win Game 3 of their American League Division series, 9-6. Judge went 3-4 with three runs scored and drove in four to propel the Yankees back into their series with the Jays.

After Judge homered to tie the game at 6 in the 4^th off Luis Varland, Jazz Chisholm Jr. went yard against Varland in the bottom of the fifth to give the Yankees a lead and they would roll to a 9-6 win to set up today’s Game 4.

That same Luis Varland whom the Yankees smacked around in Game 3 gets the ball to start Game 4 for the Blue Jays. New York’s Wild Card series hero, Cam Schlittler, gets the ball for New York.

Grab your popcorn. This is now a series.
