TORONTO—The New York Yankees clinched top spot in the American League East with a 5–2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday but Aaron Judge’s pursuit of Roger Maris’s home run record remained stalled on 60.
Judge, who had four walks, scored twice in the win but for the seventh consecutive game the Yankees slugger was unable to equal the AL single season mark of 61 set in 1961 by Maris.
