Home-stand sweep gives sizzling Blue Jays their season-high eighth win a row
Article content Another sold-out crowd at Rogers Centre, another close game against the Los Angeles Angels and yet another win. Article content Red hot would mildly describe the current streak the Blue Jays have forged, playing a brand of baseball with virtually every player providing some kind of contribution. Article content A seven-game homestand sweep was capped off by Sunday's 3-2 victory as the Blue Jays extended their season-high win streak to eight games to improve their record to 52-38. Article content Article content The following are three takeaways before the AL East-leading Blue Jays return home for the first time following baseball's all-star break when they'll play host to San Francisco on July 18 for a three-game series; then comes a return visit by the Yankees, who were swept by the Jays in a four-game series last week. Article content Following a poor outing against Arizona, a self-critical Kevin Gausman pulled no punch. Article content He would give the Jays 8.0 innings against Cleveland in his next start followed by 5.0 innings against the Yankees on Canada Day. Article content Sunday's start was the veteran's 18th of the season, an outing that began by giving up a home run to Mike Trout. Article content Article content Gausman recorded five strikeouts through the first two innings and would be aided by an inning-ending double play with the bases loaded in the fourth. Article content The trouble began on a Bo Bichette error, but he did make amends by going deep in the home half. Article content Two walks in the fifth inning would help load the bases, but Gausman induced a groundout for the third out to limit the damage in a 2-2 game. Article content A leadoff single would be yielded in the sixth inning as Gausman's pitch count would enter triple digits. Article content Gausman battled from his first pitch to his last.

'FAWING FAN BOY': Yankees broadcaster rips Sportsnet as on-air dust up amplifies
The air is getting spicy between the New York Yankees and the Toronto Blue Jays. And it's got nothing to do with the on-field dramatics – an Toronto dominance – of the previous week. Article content After getting torched by Sportsnet studio host Jamie Campbell following the Jays decisive four-game sweep of the Yankees that concluded on Thursday, Yankees play-by-play man for the YES Network, Michael Kay, fired back on Sunday morning. Article content Article content On his regular Sundays with Kay segment on YES, Kay pulled no punches on what he thought about Campbell's comments directed at him this past Thursday and the fact that the Baseball Central host did his root for the home team act of waving then tossing a broom on air following a sweep. Article content At the start of his Sunday conversation with @NancyNewmanYES, @RealMichaelKay addresses comments aimed in his direction regarding the Blue Jays. — YES Network (@YESNetwork) July 6, 2025 Article content 'What I would say to Jamie is I can easily say the Blue Jays are a first place team because I'm not a fawning fanboy I'm a broadcaster and the bottom line is they are in fact a first place team,' Kay said after being set up for his response by long-time YES host and Toronto native who earlier in her career worked for TSN. Article content 'Also, the whole narrative has been skewed by people who misinterpreted and didn't hear everything I said. In fact, I was complimenting the Blue Jays that they've exceeded the expectations that (run differential would suggest.)' Article content To backtrack, Kay and his comments became a flashpoint for the Jays following the 12-5 Canada Day win over the Yankees, in the second contest of the four-game sweep. Article content 'The Blue Jays are not a first-place team, I'm sorry,' Kay said dismissively on his radio show on ESPN New York. 'If you look at run differential … they're not playing great baseball. I'm sorry, they're not.' Article content Those comments hit a nerve in Toronto, especially as the Jays swept the Yankees and won the first two of a series against the Los Angeles Angels to take a three-game lead in the AL East. Article content Article content Kay was clearly irked by some of the criticism from north of the border – including a subtle shot from Jays manager John Schneider who referenced the 'not a first place team' comments in a session with Toronto media. Article content But what seems to have put him over the edge was Campbell's comments directed directly at him, which came after he threw the broom from the Baseball Central set at the Rogers Centre. Article content 'I can think of a certain Yankee broadcaster who is going to have to go on his show tomorrow and admit the Jays are a first place team because the standings prove it,' an emotionally charged Campbell said on the Sportsnet post-game show. Article content Kay said that the last thing a Yankees broadcaster would be caught doing is waving a broom on air after the team swept an opponent. Article content 'It's kind of funny if you think about it. Imagine if (YES studio host) Jack Curry was waving a broom on the Yankees post-game show,' Kay said. 'He would probably be called into the office and shortly fired after that.
