Blue Jays make history in Miami victory

Yesterday, the Blue Jays faced the Marlins in Miami. The club decided to send Jose Berrios to the mound.

The pitcher did well. After a few more laborious outings, the veteran gave his team a quality start: 6.1 innings, eight strikeouts and just two earned runs.

He needed it… and so did the club.

But even so, the club needed six relievers to win. And why? Because the Marlins and Blue Jays played a ball game that lasted no less than 12 innings.

It was 4-4 after nine innings when the Blue Jays scored in the 10th. But so did the Marlins. The same merry-go-round was repeated in the 11th… and in the 12th, the visitors scored without giving up a run to win it 7-6.

The result? In the modern era, John Schneider's men became the first to win a game after escaping a lead in the ninth, tenth and eleventh innings. #WhenEven

Jeff Hoffman and Mason Fluharty were credited with sabotage in the win. Tommy Nance got the win and Brendon Little picked up the save for the Toronto Blue Jays.

On the batting front, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was again absent. We don't expect to see him go on the injured list, though.

But at least Bo Bichette got up. He placed the ball in the safe zone four times while producing one run and crossing home plate twice. He was very useful for his team.

George Springer (two runs produced, two runs scored and three hits) also had his say as the game's first batter.
