Blue Jays Need Extra Innings to Top Twins, 6-3
|
Toronto and Minnesota duked it out and the Blue Jays came out victorious.
A 4-RBI performance from catcher Matt Altieri, who finished 4th in the AL in home runs with 39 in 2047, led the Toronto Blue Jays to a win over the Minnesota Twins, 6-3. Toronto goes to 93-42. The win puts them 12 games up in their division.
Altieri had a game-changing home run in the top of the tenth. On a 1-2 slider from Tony Ramirez, he banged a 3-run home run to right, giving the Blue Jays a 6-3 lead. It was the 26th home run of the year for Altieri.
"We did a lot of things right," said Altieri.
