That’s when he’ll face the Yankees at Yankee Stadium as a member of the Blue Jays for the very first time.

Scott Ewing released the video Wednesday and said it was inspired by the Raptors video released ahead of their playoff push last year, which he used the same music from.
But none of those teams are the New York Yankees, who the Blue Jays are aiming at now that their productive 10-game homestand came to a resounding conclusion Thursday night.
He likened it to 2005 when he was with a Chicago White Sox team that won the World Series.
Encarnacion went 3 for 4 with four RBI and scored twice.
With Thursday’s blowout, the resurgent Blue Jays completed their first-ever four-game series sweep over the Twins and dropped them back to.
Blue Jays manager John Gibbons was also suspended a game for his role in the incident.
A crowd of 27,725 watched Toronto’s fourth straight win and seventh in the past eight games.
R.A Dickey, the club’s supposed ace, has finally found his form, lowering his ERA by almost a full run (from 5.02 to 4.06) in his last five starts. They’re five or six games back, but they’ve got a powerful lineup, capable of putting up a lot of runs in a hurry. But he helped himself at the plate and Adrian Gonzalez hit a three-run homer to pace the NL West-leading Dodgers.
By putting up seven runs, they equaled their output over the previous seven games. 170 to.220. In the smallest of sample sizes, the Yankees have scored four runs off him in 4.2 career innings.
1 run, 3 hits, 0 errors, 1 left on.
The Cardinals improved to 30 games over. 500 on the season at 54-54.
And it’s the Yankees, not the Blue Jays, who have been baseball’s highest-scoring team since the All-Star break. The Reds were shut out for the last 18 innings. Revere was on base after his first hit since joining the Blue Jays on July 31. There was a long delay after the sixth inning to spread a drying compound around the infield. He has given up just two runs in the last 14 1/3 innings.
Jose Iglesias led off with a single against Madson (1-2) before Kinsler hit a 2-0 fastball into the bullpen in left field.
“He gets on, he can wreak havoc on the bases”, Gibbons said. “I’m trying to do as much as I can to try to get them psyched out so they can make that mistake and we can be up one run, two runs, three runs”.
Kenley Jansen got the final two outs to record his 21st save in 22 chances.
Tulowitzki gave the Blue Jays a 2-0 lead with a solo shot over the left-field wall in the third inning. 400 with two doubles, two homers and six RBIs. “We got crushed”.
Marco Estrada (9-6) struck out five over 6 2/3 innings, giving up two hits and a run for Toronto (56-52). The Twins now trail Toronto by three games in the wild-card standings, and they have fallen behind the Orioles and Rangers as well. Toronto’s third baseman knocked it down with his glove, and even after bobbling it slightly he had enough time to pop to his feet and make a strong, on-target throw to first base for the out. Davis also homered off Kevin Quackenbush.
Sanchez’s suspension was to start Monday night. He avoided joining teammate Kyle Lohse as the only 13-game losers in the majors.

The Yankees had 10 hits and three walks, driving the former Cy Young victor from the game in the third inning for the second straight time at Comerica Park.
