AROUND THE HORN

Indians: The team has removed the Chief Wahoo logo from the sleeve of its uniforms for a four-game series in Toronto. The decision to nix the logo was partially driven by a failed legal challenge against the team when it played in Toronto during the 2016 ALCS. A lawsuit was filed to have the logo and team name banned from Canadian TV. A judge dismissed the case. The Indians have said they will permanently remove the logo from their uniforms next season, but they will return to their regular uniforms next week. ... Francisco Lindor had two solo homers and four RBIs, and Shane Bieber (9-3) pitched into the seventh inning as the Indians beat the Blue Jays 9-4 for their third straight win. Lindor connected on righthander Sam Gaviglio’s third pitch of the game for the seventh leadoff homer of his career.

Padres: Francisco Mejia hit a solo homer and a three-run shot during his first start as the Padres’ up-and-coming catcher, leading his team to a 6-2 victory over the Reds. Mejia connected on his first two swings against Luis Castillo (8-12) for his first homers in the majors. The 22year-old was called up Tuesday as the Padres get him ready for a bigger role next season. Hunter Renfroe also hit a solo homer off Castillo. The Padres acquired Mejia, the Indians’ top catching prospect, in a July trade for relievers Brad Hand and Adam Cimber.

Yankees: C Gary Sanchez had two passed balls Wednesday against the A’s, giving him 13 on the season to match the Angels’ Martin Maldonado for most in the majors. Sanchez tied for the big-league high with 16 last year. He also has been behind the plate for 37 wild pitches after being part of 53 in 2017.

Astros: RHP Charlie Morton will likely start Saturday in Boston, barring any setback, manager A.J. Hinch said. Morton was placed on the 10-day disabled list on Aug. 29 with right shoulder discomfort. If Morton is unable to start, rookie Josh James will likely get the call, Hinch said.
