TORONTO — Perhaps throwing sliders down the middle to Aaron Judge is the Blue Jays’ real problem instead of where his eyes go or where the Yankees’ base coaches stand.

Just about 24 hours after crushing a home run during an at-bat Monday night that set off accusations about him potentially glancing away from the opposing pitcher to pick up signs from his first-base coach — which led to a chippy start to Tuesday’s game — Judge unleashed another booming blast to lift the Yankees to a wild 6-3 win at Rogers Centre.

Judge’s two-run, 448-foot home run to center field, off a center-cut slider from Erik Swanson, broke a 3-3 tie. With the boos raining down on him as he rounded the bases, Judge pointed to the outfield — a nod to his bullpen, he said, for grinding out a game in which starter Domingo German was ejected after three innings for failing a sticky-substance check.

“Just another gutsy effort by that group out there that just keeps on competing,” manager Aaron Boone said. “And Judgey embodies that as well as anyone.”

The win kept the momentum alive for the Yankees (25-19), who won for the 10th time in their last 14 games despite having to cover six innings unexpectedly with their bullpen following German’s departure.

The AL East rivalry added another chapter of drama that carried over from Monday night, when the Blue Jays (24-18) suspected that Judge may have been looking at first-base coach Travis Chapman for a tip on a pitch — a slider over the heart of the plate — that he crushed for a home run, followed by both sides digging in their heels leading up to Tuesday’s first pitch.

“We’re here to play baseball,” Judge said in describing the win despite the chaos surrounding it. “We’re focused on one thing and that’s between the lines and what we gotta do to win those nine innings and win the game every single night. When you got all 26 guys, all nine guys in the lineup, focused on that one thing, any other distraction or noise outside of that doesn’t bother us.”

Major League Baseball, after finding no indication of a major rules violation on Monday night, was expected to remind the Yankees of coaches’ positioning before Tuesday’s game. That did little to temper the tensions between the teams, though.

It only took two-plus innings until the game was interrupted by the Blue Jays seemingly complaining about Yankees third-base coach Luis Rojas setting up outside of the box in the top of the third. Blue Jays pitching coach Pete Walker appeared to be barking at Rojas from the opposite end of the dugout from where he stood for most of the game — manager John Schneider claimed Walker was doing it “more playfully than anything saying, ‘I’m watching you’ ” — which resulted in two umpires having an extended conversation with Rojas.

Then in a bizarre bottom of the fourth inning that began with German getting ejected, Boone was yelling and pointing from the dugout about Blue Jays third-base coach Luis Rivera setting up outside of the box. Home plate umpire James Hoye had Rivera take a few steps toward the box before play resumed.

Still, for much of the night, base coaches from both teams were routinely set up outside of the coaches’ box — as they are on a nightly basis around the league.

“Just whatever. Tired,” Boone said of the back and forth. “It’s just silliness. It’s ridiculous. And I think everyone — I hope on both sides — realizes it.”

The drama overshadowed a brutal night from Gleyber Torres — he was thrown out twice on the base paths and made a costly defensive miscue that extended the eighth inning — and a strong night for Isiah Kiner-Falefa, who homered, doubled and scored three runs.

But then Judge’s go-ahead blast in the eighth inning fit right into the script, leaning into the villain role.

“That’s the MVP,” Kiner-Falefa said. “He’s the best player in the world for a reason.”
