Toronto Grabs 5-1 Road Win
Kauffman Stadium was the site for American League action featuring the Kansas City Royals and Toronto Blue Jays.

Zach Maxwell, who led the NL in strikeouts with 263 in 2026, was locked in. The right-hander led the Toronto Blue Jays to a 5-1 win against the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. Toronto is 4th in the American League East Division with a record of 58-69.

Toronto used a well-timed hit by Gene Hegedus to capture the win. The right fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Blue Jays ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"It's about putting our team in the best position to win ballgames," said Maxwell.
