NEW YORK — Giancarlo Stanton hit a loud tiebreaking grand slam in the third inning, and the New York Yankees beat the Toronto Blue Jays 8-3 for their eighth win in 10 games to start the season. Stanton gave the Yankees a 5-1 lead with a 417-foot drive off Bowden Francis that clanked against the facing of an advertisement below the second deck in left field. Stanton fell behind 0-2 in the count before turning on a 2-2 inside fastball and driving it at 110.6 mph for his 11th career slam, his first since September 2022.
