Ben Rice hits two-run single to cap 3-run sixth as Yankees pull away for 8-3 victory over Blue Jays

On Sunday, the New York Yankees defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 8-3 at the Stadium, with Ben Rice hitting a bases-loaded single in the sixth inning to break a 2-2 tie.
New York starter Carlos Rodon pitched four innings, allowing two runs before Paul Blackburn earned the win with two scoreless innings of relief work.
In the sixth inning, Trent Grisham drew a bases-loaded walk against reliever Braydon Fisher before Rice lined a slider to right field for a 5-2 lead.
Jazz Chisholm Jr. added a two-run homer in the seventh, while Cody Bellinger returned to the lineup following a hamstring injury as the team finished with double-digit hits.
A three-game series against visiting Houston begins Tuesday, and Rodon is scheduled to make his next start during a Saturday doubleheader against the Red Sox.
