Yankees summon Monument Park spirits for epic Game 3 comeback

Blue Jays third baseman Addison Barger retrieved a pop fly hit by Austin Wells in Game 4, as the Yankees staged a comeback. The Yankees were down by five runs, reminiscent of a past defeat in the same ballpark 342 days ago.

In Game 3 of the American League Division Series, the Yankees were trailing the Blue Jays 6-1 after a tough third inning. However, they managed to turn the game around, scoring eight unanswered runs and securing a 9-6 victory to stay in the series.

The Blue Jays had dominated the first two games, scoring 23 runs, but the Yankees fought back in Game 3. Aaron Judge's crucial home run in the fourth inning, hitting the foul pole, helped the Yankees close the gap and eventually win the game.

The Yankees' bullpen played a key role, holding the Blue Jays to no runs across 6 2/3 innings. Pitchers Fernando Cruz, Camilo Doval, Tim Hill, Devin Williams, and David Bednar delivered a strong performance, supporting Judge's game-changing homer.

Despite the thrilling victory, the Yankees still face elimination in Game 4, with Cam Schlittler set to pitch. If they win, they will have to overcome the challenge of playing at Rogers Centre in Canada, a venue where they have struggled this season. The team remains determined to advance to the American League Championship Series.
