The Toronto Blue Jays pulled off a ninth-inning comeback as they got by the Miami Marlins 4-3 at Rogers Centre on Tuesday night. The Blue Jays extended their win streak to seven games while the Fish have lost three of their last four games.
Giancarlo Stanton would hit the first of two home runs in the game during the first inning for Miami(24-35) against former Marlin pitcher Mark Buehrle. He hit a solo home run to left-center field on a 1-0 pitch for his 20th homer. Christian Yelich added another solo homer to right-center field in the fourth inning for the Fish to make it 2-0.
Toronto(30-30) evened it up in the bottom of the fourth with two runs off Dan Haren. Jose Reyes led off with a double to deep right field and Josh Donaldson followed with a base hit to left. Reyes would score on a sacrifice fly to right field. Edwin Encarnacion then sacrificed home Donaldson with a fly ball to left.
Stanton once again hit another solo home run for the Marlins in the seventh inning for his 21st homer of the season, however this time it was surrendered by Roberto Osuna on a 2-2 count.
A.J. Ramos was brought in by Miami to get the save and he failed. Donaldson started with a base hit to right field then Bautista struck out. Encarnacion came up and hit the first pitch over the center-field wall for a game-winning walk-off home run and the 4-3 victory.
