Toronto Gets Riveting Walk-Off Win
With second baseman C.J. Richerson leading the charge, the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Minnesota Twins, 6-5, at Rogers Centre. Richerson, who is tied for 4th in the AL with a .608 slugging percentage, belted 2 home runs, while adding 5 RBI and scoring twice. With the win, the Blue Jays sit at 71-29.

The clutch at-bat in the bottom of the ninth belonged to Richerson. Facing Gerbrand van de Bilt with the bases loaded, the Toronto second baseman had a run-scoring walk. Game over, walk-off style!

"This is truly a great team to play with," Richerson said after the game. "We're like brothers, and when we come together to pull out the win, that just makes it all the better."
