The New York Yankees are facing a challenging stretch as they prepare for their upcoming game against the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday, July 3, 2025, after suffering three consecutive losses to the Canadian team. The game, set to start at 7:07 p.m. ET at Rogers Centre in Toronto, will be available for viewing on YES Network and out-of-market fans can catch it on MLB Network and streaming platforms like DirecTV and fuboTV.
In their last matchup, the Yankees fell to the Blue Jays with a score of 11-9, continuing a difficult month where they have only won 13 out of 31 games since May 28. “We’ve got to play better,” Yankees star Aaron Judge stated, emphasizing the team’s need to improve their performance to find success on the field.
The Yankees are also welcoming back catcher Austin Wells, who missed three games due to a circulatory issue in his left index finger but returned to pinch-run. He was replaced by Ben Rice, who faced challenges in the game, including a wild pitch that led to a crucial score for the Blue Jays. Rice accepted responsibility for the mistake, showing leadership and accountability.
In roster news, the Yankees recalled right-handed reliever Clayton Beeter from Triple-A, where he had been performing admirably with a 1.02 ERA and 29 strikeouts over 17.2 innings. Yankees manager Aaron Boone is optimistic about Beeter’s potential as he aims to secure a place in the bullpen.
Additionally, right-hander Luis Gil missed a throwing session due to a personal matter but is expected to resume activities soon as he recovers from a shoulder injury.
As the Yankees tighten their focus for the critical matchup against Toronto, fans can remain hopeful that the return of key players and the rallying cry from leaders like Judge may spark a turnaround for the team in their quest for victory.
