The result stopped Toronto's six-game streak.

Overview

  • Chandler Simpson robbed Alejandro Kirk of a potential three-run homer in the fourth, turning it into a tying sacrifice fly.
  • Simpson went 3-for-4, doubled and scored in the first, then drove in Carson Williams with the decisive seventh-inning single.
  • Rookie Ian Seymour delivered a career-best seven innings in his fourth start, allowing one unearned run on four hits with three strikeouts and one walk.
  • Pete Fairbanks recorded the save with a 1-2-3 ninth, retiring Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Kirk and Ty France to seal the 2-1 win.
  • Junior Caminero left after the sixth with back tightness, and the game featured a brief rain delay plus home plate umpire Brian O’Nora exiting due to illness.
