Giancarlo Stanton stayed hot homering in the fourth for a 1-0 Yankees lead Monday night, the Blue Jays countered in the fifth when Bo Bichette laced a two-out, two-run double off laboring lefty Carlos Rodon and then speedy outfielder Myles Straw hit a groundball a couple steps to third baseman’s Oswald Peraza ’s left.

In the first sign of the New York Yankees front office having a pulse, they have reached out to the Diamondbacks about third baseman Eugenio Suarez, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post. Suarez has long been linked to the Yankees and is considered the top third-base trade target potentially on the market.
