Fifth Inning

In what proved to be a pivotal moment for New York, they scored three more runs in this inning. Paul Goldschmidt's impressive hitting played a crucial role here as he drove in multiple RBIs that widened the gap between them and their opponents.

Sixth Inning

Toronto mounted an aggressive comeback attempt during this period by scoring four runs off three hits and taking advantage of an error by New York’s defense. This surge brought them within striking distance but ultimately fell short due largely due to effective pitching changes made by Yankees' management.
