The New York Yankees are American League East champions for the first time since 2019.
Thanks to their 5-2 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday, the Yankees clinched the division title.
The Yankees already clinched a playoff berth with their 5-4 victory over the Boston Red Sox on Sept. 22. This is the sixth consecutive year the Bronx Bombers will be in the postseason.
There was a little bit of sweating among Yankees fans about their team's division lead down the stretch this season. They have struggled since the All-Star break with a 31-31 record, which coincided with their lead in the AL East going from a season-high 15.
