Blue Jays Open 3 Game Set against the Yankees at Rogers Center
August 8th, 2008.
The Toronto Blue Jays host the Division leading New York Yankees starting today at Rogers Center. It is only August but with the Jays trailing the Yankees by 4 games this series has serious playoff implications. GM Ryan Stewart was quoted as saying "This is definately an important series for us we don't want to fall so far back that we don't have a chance to get back into the race. If we sweep we are only 1 game back and it becomes anyones guess who wins" The Jays will have to win al leat 2 of the 3 games to at least gain some ground on a very good Yankees team. The Jays will send SP Francisco Romero (7-7), SP Christian Jacobs (10-7) and SP Bill Arkell (15-3) at the Yankees.
