NextImg:Yankees can’t play spoiler for third night in a row in loss to Blue Jays

TORONTO — The Yankees played spoiler for two nights, but could not hold down the Blue Jays forever.

After getting shut out through the first 20 innings of the series, the Blue Jays finally broke out to avoid a sweep and beat the Yankees 6-0 on Thursday night at Rogers Centre.

While the Blue Jays (88-71) inched closer to locking up an AL wild card, the Yankees (81-78) flew to Kansas City needing one win in their final three games to secure their 31st straight winning season.

Luke Weaver gave up a pair of solo home runs to Daulton Varsho and Matt Chapman during his four-inning start before the Blue Jays broke the game open against Greg Weissert (one run) and Zach McAllister (three runs).

Former Met Chris Bassitt, meanwhile, struck out 12 across 7 ⅔ shutout innings.

He whiffed Aaron Judge on his 106th and final pitch of the night to hit 200 innings for the first time in his career.

Yoendrys Gomez, the Yankees’ 23-year-old right-hander who spent most of this season at Double-A, made his MLB debut by pitching the final two innings in relief.

He struck out four while giving up a bloop single and hitting a batter.
