Vladimir Guerrero Jr. drove in three runs as the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the visiting New York Yankees 5-4 on Monday night in the opener of a four-game series. Guerrero's two-run single in a four-run sixth inning gave Toronto the lead as the Blue Jays won for the fourth time in five games.

Addison Barger and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. homered on consecutive pitches from Walker Buehler in the first inning and Toronto capitalized on the right-hander’s wildness to add two runs in the fourth in a 5-3 win over the Boston Red Sox.

The Toronto Blue Jays may need to swing a trade to add some depth behind Vladimir Guerrero Jr. He was removed from a game after a hit by a pitch, and it shed light on how thin the team is behind him.
