-- Kevin Gausman struck out 11 in seven shutout innings, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Daulton Varsho hit back-to-back homers following an error by rookie shortstop Anthony Volpe, and the Toronto Blue Jays beat theThe Blue Jays won for the 12th time in 18 games and took two of three in the Bronx to hand New York its first series loss. The Yankees had won or split their first six series, their longest streak to start a season since 2003, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
Gausman bounced back nicely from allowing eight runs Monday in Houston and held the Yankees to three hits. He struck out every New York batter at least once except for DJ LeMahieu and Isiah Kiner-Falefa, and got his second double-digit strikeout game this season. Danny Jansen added an RBI double in the seventh off reliever Michael King, and Toronto scored its final run on his grounder in the ninth when the Yankees could not turn a double play.
Volpe was charged with his first career error with one out in the sixth. He moved slightly to his right at the edge of the infield dirt to field George Springer's grounder, but the ball hopped up off his glove and Volpe could not make the throw to first base.
