In both the reaglar season and the playoffs, it was the Toronto Blue Jays that got the better of the Bronx Bombers, beating them 8-5 in the season series and 3-1 in the division series.

While speaking to press on Thursday, general manager Brian Cashman admitted the Blue Jays were a team that appeared to have the Yankees' number all season long.

Popular baseball content page "Talkin' Yanks" later took to X to post about Cashman's quote.
