Toronto Blue Jays starter Kevin Gausman pitched a strong game against the Baltimore Orioles at Rogers Centre, leading the Blue Jays to victory, 4-3. Jordan Romano, credited with the win, is now 3-3. He allowed no runs on no hits. The loss makes Baltimore 70-45.

The Blue Jays were down to their final out when second baseman Santiago Espinal turned a 1-0 curveball from Felix Bautista into a 2-run single. The walk-off single made the Rogers Centre crowd go wild.

"Bottom line," said Baltimore skipper Ron Chiu, "we didn't play well enough to win."
