A wee opposite-way, perfectly placed single by Edwin Encarnacion in the bottom of the ninth and the Jays walked off a 4-3 win over the Yankees for their third consecutive victory of the weekend. In olden days of Jays, the situation would not have seemed so dire, trailing by only one run at home in the ninth. But these hitting-constipated Jays aren’t quite those Jays anymore. It was smart, heads-up baseball for the Jays, set in motion by Upton working an 0-2 count into a walk. It was a Gotham sweep at Yankee Stadium early this month that flung the Jays into their September funk.
