Yimi García - Notches first saveGarcia pitched a perfect ninth inning to earn a save over the Yankees on Saturday.

ImpactToronto closer Jordan Romano pitched in each of the first two games of the series, so Garcia was given the task of preserving the team's three-run, ninth-inning lead. He threw 17 pitches to retire the side in order and notch his first save of the campaign. Garcia saved 15 games for Miami last season, but Adam Cimber -- who was deployed in the fifth inning Saturday -- has gotten the majority of the closing opportunities when Romano has been unavailable this season.

Gerrit Cole - Falls apart in fifth inningCole (9-6) took the loss against Toronto on Saturday, pitching six innings and allowing four runs on five hits and two walks while striking out five batters.

ImpactCole was locked in through four frames, allowing only two baserunners on a walk and a hit batsman. After striking out Matt Chapman to begin the fifth, he subsequently let six straight batters reach base on three doubles, two infield singles and a free pass. The onslaught resulted in four runs, and though Cole rebounded to retire the side in order in the sixth, the damage was too much for a recently tepid New York offense to overcome. Cole has now gone six starts without earning a victory, and he's posted an uncharacteristic 4.62 ERA over that span. He leads the majors with 189 strikeouts but has otherwise had a mildly disappointing campaign thus far.

Mitch White - Fans five in no-decisionWhite allowed one run on seven hits and no walks while striking out five batters over four innings in a no-decision versus the Yankees on Saturday.

ImpactThe right-hander allowed multiple baserunners in three of his four innings, but he constantly navigated around traffic and yielded only one run. Altogether, White surrendered seven hits, but only one of those went for extra bases. He has now made three starts for Toronto since coming over from the Dodgers at the trade deadline, and he has yet to complete five innings in any of those outings. However, he's been decently effective, posting a 3.38 ERA and 10:4 K:BB across across 13.1 innings. That should be good enough for White to keep a spot in the rotation over Yusei Kikuchi, who was recently demoted to the bullpen.
