Bo Bichette hits fourth for first time this season as Blue Jays hope to create runs

Sep 28, 2023 | 2:00 PM

TORONTO — All-star shortstop Bo Bichette will bat fourth for the Toronto Blue Jays tonight against the New York Yankees.

Bichette’s .301 batting average leads the Blue Jays this year.

He has hit second in the order all season but Toronto manager John Schneider says he wants Bichette to be in a position to drive in runs.

The Blue Jays have been shut out by the Yankees in the first two games of their three-game set at Rogers Centre.

Toronto holds the second wild-card spot in the American League with four games left in the regular season and a win over New York would help the club clinch a playoff berth.
