Blue Jays Get Clutch 9-7 Win
The Toronto Blue Jays topped the Kansas City Royals, 9-7, with designated hitter Kurt Ross playing a big role. Ross was 2-5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 and driving in 3 for the Blue Jays in the win. The last-place Blue Jays have won 4 in a row.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With one out, Ross hit a sinker from Sincere Jackson for a 2-run home run. The Blue Jays, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Toronto manager Ben Smith.
