Blue Jays' Alek Manoah on Gerrit Cole confrontation: 'If Gerrit wants to do something he can walk past the Audi sign next time'

Manoah said he's struggled to throw his sinker over his last five or six starts, adding he thought Judge understood he didn't intend to hit him. 

Cole told reporters he "wasn't sure" if Manoah had hit Judge on purpose. He explained his actions by saying, "Aaron got hit, and we'd been dusted several times." 

For those wondering, the Yankees and Blue Jays will meet again before the end of the regular season. New York will travel north to Toronto for a three-game set beginning Sept. 26. 

There's also a chance the two clubs could face off in the postseason. The Yankees continue to sit atop the AL East with a 74-48 record. Meanwhile, the Jays' are tied with the Tampa Bay Rays for the top AL wildcard spot with a record of 65-55.
