NEW YORK -- For nearly two years, the Toronto Blue Jays had walked off the field at Yankee Stadium with losses. Every time. Dan Johnsons 70-foot infield hit helped the Blue Jays stop their 17-game skid in the Bronx. Johnson drove in four runs with the seventh-inning single and a three-run homer in the ninth, lifting the Blue Jays over New York 6-4 on Saturday for their first win at Yankee Stadium since Aug. 29, 2012. "We were trying anything," Johnson said, "just to kind of change the feeling, the mojo here." Toronto didnt take batting practice before Fridays 6-3 loss or on Saturday. Manager John Gibbons described the losing streak as feeling "Volkswagen tracks" on his neck. Brian McCanns two-run homer off Drew Hutchison (7-9) put New York ahead, but the Blue Jays tied the score in the fifth against Chris Capuano, who was making his Yankees debut, on Melky Cabreras RBI double and Steve Tollesons sacrifice fly. Toronto went ahead in the seventh when Shawn Kelley (1-3) walked Cabrera leading off and Jose Bautista doubled him to third. Dioner Navarro, who had three hits, followed with a grounder to McCann, an All-Star catcher playing first base this week because of Mark Teixeiras strained back. McCann took a step in, checked the runners, but allowed Navarro to get by him and reach on a fielders choice that loaded the bases. "It was a such a strange play," Navarro said. "We caught a break right there." Kelley struck out Tolleson, and Johnson was jammed by left-hander Matt Thornton as the ball blooped to the right side. Second baseman Brian Roberts reacted slowly, and the ball landed on the grass in front of him, with McCann and Thornton not far away. All runners were safe, and Toronto led 3-2. "When you lose 17 in a row, you deserve something like that," Gibbons said. Johnson at first thought the ball might be caught or even called an infield fly. "One of the softest hits Ive ever got," he said. "There was three guys converging on it, so I couldnt really figure out what was going on." Roberts didnt think he had a chance to grab it. "Maybe its a play Im supposed to make, but it didnt happen," he said. "Bounces dont always go your way. One guy does everything right and one guy does everything kind of wrong, and the result goes in favour of the one that does everything wrong." Johnson made it 6-2 with a ninth-inning drive off Jeff Francis over the short porch in right, his first homer since hitting three for the Chicago White Sox at Cleveland on Oct. 3, 2012. Toronto reliever Casey Janssen allowed Carlos Beltrans two-run homer in the ninth. Hutchison stopped a three-start skid to win for the first time since July 1. He gave up two runs, five hits and three walks in 6 2-3 innings with seven strikeouts. Aaron Loup walked a pair of batters with two outs in the eighth before throwing a called third strike past Brett Gardner with on a two-seam fastball with a full count. Casey Janssen allowed Carlos Beltrans two-run homer in the ninth. "We needed a win -- especially against these guys and especially here," Loup said. "It seems like everything was bouncing against them today, so it ended up working out for us." NOTES: Gibbons said All-Star 1B Edwin Encarnacion, on the DL since straining his right quadriceps July 5, had a setback during his rehabilitation in Florida when he felt tightness while swinging a bat. ... Johnson also famously saved Tampa Bay on the final night of the 2011 regular season with a tying two-run, two-strike, ninth-inning homer off the Yankees Cory Wade. ... Both teams were warned in the first inning by plate umpire Alan Porter after Capuano hit Bautista in the ribs and Hutchison hit Beltran above the elbow. ... New York lost for just the second time in eight games since the All-Star break. Fred Lynn Jersey . Cincinnati has lost back-to-back games in overtime, wasting a chance to take a commanding lead in their division. David Price Red Sox Jersey . Calgary finished atop the CFL standings with a 14-4 record and earned the right to host the West Division final at McMahon Stadium on Nov. https://www.cheapredsox.com/611z-marco-h...ey-red-sox.html. Anything less than gold for either nation is considered a disappointment. Yet for Switzerland, advancing to the semifinal might be a victory in itself. Trevor Kelley Red Sox Jersey . He had spent 16 days on the disabled list before being activated Thursday. He was batting just .203 when he came to bat in the 11th inning on Sunday. Joe Kelly Red Sox Jersey . Brassard and Coyotes defenceman Derek Morris were battling for position in the crease when a nudge from Morris sent Brassard on top of Smith late in the third period.After Stephen Curry was given the unanimous Most Valuable Player vote in the NBA earlier this week, I thought it was high time to vote for the most exciting player in each sport. Some might even get two votes. Some might even see a team voted for. NFLOdell Beckham Jr (New York Giants) Even Beckhams cleats are exciting... The first time I really experienced Beckham Jr, he was playing college at Louisiana State, and he caught a kick-off one-handed. It was one of the most incredible things Ive ever seen. I turned to my neighbour and said: Did you just see that? Of course, my neighbour was too busy chatting to someone else to witness that act of NFL Godliness. Anyway, a year later and he was the most exciting thing in the New York Giants team and maybe the whole of the NFL, catching one-handed grabs out of nowhere and generally looking like Superman and Spiderman. I think they called him Beckham, Man!JJ Watt (Houston Texans) J.J. Watt is the Texans star man Love him or hate him, heres one thing thats undoubted: Watt is the best defensive player in the NFL. Hes certainly the most exciting. Offensive linesmen dont know how to deal with him. No-one knows. Hes brilliant, durable, and heres the big thing: It doesnt matter how many offensive superstars they have in Houston. JJ Watts still the top player. NBALeBron James (Cleveland Cavaliers) LeBron James has been forced to share the limelight with Curry If you want an alternative to Curry, then why not James? Because there is nothing more exhilarating - whether youre watching him on TV or youre watching in the flesh - than saying: Im watching the new Michael Jordan.Golden State Warriors Stephen Currys Warriors won last years championship If you like teams dropping threee pointers like its going out of fashion, then the Warriors are your team.ddddddddddddIf you want a team thats a walking heart attack every play-off game, go for either the San Antonio Spurs or Oklahoma Thunder. Who are playing each other.MLBNoah Syndergaard (New York Mets) Noah Syndergaard is the MLBs most exciting pitcher Nicknamed Thor by his teammates, this pitcher is a strikeout machine who makes opposition batters shake their heads after facing his filthy slider ball. Already with nearly 50 strikeouts this season, hes going to be something special for years to come. Have fun facing him, folks.Bryce Harper (Washington Nationals) Bryce Harper has a reputation for massive hitting Harper has taken the game by the throat since he first came on base in 2012. Lately, the hitter has been imploring the powers-that-be (and quite possibly mocking Mr Donald Trump) to make baseball fun again - and theres nothing not fun about the way he plays the game.He plays it with all the emotion in the world, whether its hitting, running, or yelling: Are you kidding me? at an umpire… and then getting thrown out of a game [hes subsequently appealed that].But Harper is making baseball a lot of fun to watch, and one thing I beg of the Washington Nationals: Get some hitting around Harper, will you? Otherwise baseball will be boring - quickly!Chicago Cubs Chicago Cubs inconsistency makes them exciting Theres no team having more fun and being more exciting than the Cubs, who are on a tear at the moment, starting the season by winning 25 out of their first 32 games. This team is awesome at hitting the long ball, and bearing in mind they havent won a World Series in over 100 years, they are also catching the imagination, too.
