Rice also reached a full count against left-hander Mason Fluharty and lined a slider to right field for a 5-2 lead.
Chisholm added a two-run homer in the seventh and Grisham homered in the eighth as the Yankees earned a win by at least five runs for the third time since the All-Star break.
Rookie Spencer Jones had an RBI double in the second and also made a diving catch in right field on Alejandro Kirk’s sinking liner in the sixth. Austin Wells added an RBI double in the second as the Yankees won for the sixth time in seven games.
New York finished with double-digit hits for the third time in five games after getting no-hit for 6 2/3 innings on Saturday by Dylan Cease.
Paul Blackburn (5-2) pitched two innings for the win.
Rookie Brett Bateman and Daz Cameron lifted sacrifice flies for Toronto. Kirk added an RBI single in the eighth.
Soriano allowed five runs and seven hits in five-plus innings. The right-hander struck out seven and walked three.
