Alejandro Kirk’s walk-off sac fly in the ninth clinched the Blue Jays’ 5-4 win over the Orioles and their franchise-record 45th comeback.
Alejandro Kirk hit a sacrifice fly off Yennier Cano to walk it off for Toronto as the Orioles’ bullpen collapsed late in Toronto.
The Toronto Blue Jays are one of the best teams in baseball this season. However, they could be losing a key player in free agency.
Despite Astros starter Luis Garcia exiting in the second inning with a reinjured elbow, the Jays plowed through five innings without a hit. Until George Springer yanked a 450-foot fly to the left-field bleachers, the lineup was ostensibly silent. The Jays entered the ninth inning with just one run on four hits.
No one is leaving early these days. The Blue Jays mounted yet another rally on Saturday afternoon, roaring back for a 5-4 walk-off win over the Orioles at Rogers Centre. Never mind that they trailed from the first to the ninth.
B ack at the trade deadline, the Toronto Blue Jays made a huge move when they acquired former AL Cy Young award winner Shane Bieber. Normally, that would have automatically been seen as a great move, but because he was still recovering from Tommy John surgery that sidelined him for almost all last year, there were questions about his viability.
The Blue Jays are closing in on October, and now they’re turning to a fresh arm to help finish the job. Toronto intends to promote Trey Yesavage, their 2024 first-round pick, by Monday, according to Shi Davidi and Ben Nocholson-Smith.
As the Blue Jays try and take home the AL East crown, it's clear one of their pitchers needs to take a massive step forward.
