Blue Jays Sneak By Orioles, 3-2
Baltimore got a valiant performance from pitcher Marko Emchenko, but it wasn't enough to beat the Toronto Blue Jays. Toronto won the game, 3-2. Emchenko threw 7.0 innings of 5-hit ball for the losing team. Toronto goes to 100-44. The win puts them 16 games up in their division.

Toronto used the timely hitting of Zory Larikov to seize the win. The designated hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Blue Jays on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"This is truly a great team to play with," Larikov said after the game. "We're like brothers, and when we come together to pull out the win, that just makes it all the better."
