Kiner-Falefa drives in winning run in Jays’ win

TORONTO – Isiah Kiner-Falefa drove in Cavan Biggio with the winning run in the ninth inning to give the Toronto Blue Jays a 3-2 walkoff victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday at Rogers Centre.

Kiner-Falefa drove a pitch to the wall off Orioles right-hander Craig Kimbrel (4-2) to allow Biggio to trot home from third base.

Justin Turner, who had three hits for the Blue Jays, led off the bottom of the ninth with a single.

Biggio came on as a pinch-runner and took second base on an errant pickoff attempt. He advanced to third on Alejandro Kirk’s sacrifice fly.

Yimi Garcia (2-0) worked a clean ninth inning for the win. Anthony Santander homered for the Orioles (39-21), who lost for just the third time in 13 games.

Toronto (29-32) has won six of its last nine games. The Blue Jays outhit Baltimore 9-6.

Both starting pitchers settled in after blips in the second inning.

Santander belted an off-speed slurve from Jose Berrios an estimated 436 feet to open the scoring. It was his 12th home run of the season.

Cedric Mullins added another run when he walked, stole second and scored on a double by Ramon Urias.
