Gleyber Torres had a home run, a double and four RBIs, and the New York Yankees defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 7-2 Wednesday night to salvage the finale of a three-game series in Buffalo.

Deivi Garcia (1-1), a 21-year-old making his third career major league start, allowed two runs, five hits and no walks while striking out six in seven innings.

The right-hander made his longest major league start to earn his first win.

The Yankees (22-21) ended a five-game losing streak with their sixth victory in their past 21 games.

The Blue Jays (24-19) had a three-game winning streak stopped. They have won 10 of their past 15 games and hold a two-game lead over the Yankees for second place in the American League East.

Toronto starter Tanner Roark allowed two runs, two hits and three walks in four innings. The right-hander struck out three. Ross Stripling (3-3) gave up three runs in 3 1/3 relief innings to take the loss.

Torres led off the second with his second homer. In the bottom of the inning, Jonathan Villar hit a one-out infield single and Fisher hit his first homer with two outs.

Zack Britton pitched around a single in the bottom of the eighth.

Sean Reid-Foley pitched the top of the ninth for Toronto. LeMahieu reached first on an error, took second on a groundout, then stole third. After Hicks walked, LeMahieu scored on Clint Frazier's single. Hicks scored from third on a groundout by Torres.

Before the game, the Blue Jays put first baseman Rowdy Tellez on the injured list due to a right knee strain. Outfielder Billy McKinney was recalled.
