NEW YORK -- Something in the rain must have stirred those Toronto hitters.Or maybe it was just Michael Pinedas early exit.Russell Martin homered twice, including a go-ahead shot in an eight-run eighth inning, and Troy Tulowitzki had a season-high four hits as the Blue Jays erased a six-run deficit following a 42-minute rain delay Tuesday night in their 12-6 victory over the New York Yankees.The rain helped us, I know that, manager John Gibbons said. Got old Pineda out of there. ... We just came to life.Edwin Encarnacion hit a tying homer and reached 100 RBI with three in the eighth as Toronto took advantage of a major meltdown by New Yorks bullpen. Tulowitzki also went deep to help the Blue Jays complete their biggest comeback since June 2015. They climbed back atop the AL East, just ahead of Baltimore and Boston.It just felt like the momentum was shifting in our direction, Martin said. But we definitely got a little bit lucky, got Pineda out of the game. It looked like he had his A-game today. So, youve just got to point to the sky and kind of thank whoevers up there helping out like that.Impressive rookie Gary Sanchez homered twice for New York, including a titanic, three-run drive deep into the rarely reached second deck in left field at Yankee Stadium. It was the fourth time both starting catchers had multiple home runs in a major league game -- first in the American League.Didi Gregorius also homered for the Yankees, who squandered a chance to move within 4 1/2 games of first place. They lost for the second time in seven games and failed again to move five over .500 for the first time this season.Scott Feldman (6-4) replaced ineffective Toronto starter Marco Estrada after the stoppage and struck out five in three innings of one-run relief. It was Feldmans first win with the Blue Jays since they acquired him from Houston at the Aug. 1 trade deadline.Held scoreless over the first 14 innings of the series, Torontos big bats finally busted loose after a downpour in the middle of the fifth ended Pinedas strong start.I would have loved to send him (back) out there, but what he went through with his shoulder, I just felt he couldnt do it, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. We just felt its risky for him. And thats just not a risk we want to take. Hes important to us.Toronto pounced on reliever Anthony Swarzak in the sixth.Devon Travis doubled and scored on a throwing error by third baseman Chase Headley. Two strikeouts later, Tulowitzki popped a two-run homer just beyond the short porch in right field, and Martin followed with a home run to center.It was the second time in three days that Tulowitzki and Martin went back-to-back.Now that the Yankees dont have (Andrew) Miller and (Dellin) Betances in the seventh and eighth inning, it makes for a different ballgame, Martin said.With the Blue Jays trailing 6-4, reigning AL MVP Josh Donaldson worked a 12-pitch walk against Adam Warren (1-1) leading off the eighth.Encarnacion, who leads the majors in RBI, followed with a no-doubt drive deep into the lower deck in left field to tie it at 6. He dropped his bat on home plate and styled his way around the bases after his 34th homer tied Baltimore slugger Mark Trumbo for tops in the majors.He kept fouling off good pitches, Warren said about his tussle with Donaldson. You want to get the first guy out, and when it goes that deep, hot night, and youre working hard, it wears you down a little bit. And obviously, a little demoralizing when you walk him.Tulowitzki singled in front of Martins 12th homer, a high fly to right that put Toronto ahead. It marked the 12th career multihomer game for the ex-Yankees catcher, the last three with the Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium.I wish you guys wouldnt have told me that. Now Im going to be thinking about it, said Martin, who has homered in three straight games for the second time in his career. I do like playing in New York; its a good city. I like the atmosphere. Theres always good energy. That might be a reason. But, I dont know, maybe Im holding a little something against the Yankees.Chasen Shreve entered and failed to retire any of his five batters. Travis hit an RBI single, and Donaldson drove in a run with his second walk of the inning. Michael Saunders had an RBI double, and Encarnacions groundout gave him three RBI in a half-inning that lasted 37 minutes.The eight runs matched Torontos largest inning of the season.The offense exploded, Estrada said.FALLING APARTWarren had not allowed a run in nine appearances covering 11 innings since the Yankees reacquired him from the Chicago Cubs in the trade for Aroldis Chapman. It was the largest lead New York has blown since squandering a 7-0 cushion after seven innings at Tampa Bay on Sept. 28, 2011, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.TRAINERS ROOMBlue Jays: OF Ezequiel Carrera (strained left Achilles tendon) was activated from the 15-day disabled list and started in right field.
