Blue Jays Eye Sweep and Perfect Homestand in Finale Against Angels
The Toronto Blue Jays enter Sunday’s series finale with a golden opportunity: complete a three-game sweep of the Los Angeles Angels and finish a perfect 7–0 homestand. Currently riding a seven-game winning streak, the Jays are red-hot and surging to the top of the American League East.
Their dominance began with a four-game sweep of the Yankees, followed by two thrilling extra-inning victories over the Angels—10 innings on Friday and 11 innings on Saturday. Saturday’s hero was rookie Addison Barger, who capped off the night with a walk-off RBI single after already collecting two clutch hits earlier in the game.
George Springer has been on a historic tear, homering in five straight games and batting .490 with six home runs and 21 RBIs over his last 13 games. His presence at the top of the lineup has ignited the entire offense.
On the mound, Kevin Gausman (6–6, 4.18 ERA) gets the ball for Toronto. Gausman dominated the Angels last year, allowing just one earned run across 14 innings. Opposing him is Tyler Anderson (2–5, 4.12 ERA), who has struggled historically against the Jays with an 0–3 record and a 4.98 ERA.
Despite losing key reliever Yimi Garcia to injury, the Blue Jays’ bullpen has been lights out. Veterans like Chad Green and youngsters like Braydon Fisher have delivered when needed most.
If Toronto pulls off the sweep, it will mark one of their strongest statements of the season. With Springer blazing, Gausman locked in, and momentum fully on their side, the Blue Jays look to end this homestand with perfection—and a powerful message to the rest of
the league.
