Bichette Hits 9th Inning Pinch HR and 5 Toronto Pitchers Combine on 1-Hitter in 2-0 Win at Texas

On the evening of May 28, 2025, in Arlington, Texas, the Toronto Blue Jays secured a 2-0 victory over the Texas Rangers, highlighted by Bo Bichette's pinch-hit two-run home run in the ninth inning.
Bichette, who was not in the starting lineup due to lower back soreness, came in as a pinch hitter and connected on a fastball thrown by Jacob Webb with two outs, breaking the scoreless deadlock.
Five Toronto pitchers combined for a one-hitter, with starter Paxton Schultz making his first major league start and striking out four batters over 2 2/3 innings.
Jeff Hoffman closed with a perfect ninth inning, earning his 12th save, as Toronto recorded its third shutout and held the Rangers scoreless for the seventh time this season.
The win gave Toronto two victories in the three-game series, which featured only seven combined runs and preceded the Blue Jays opening a four-game home series against the Athletics on Thursday.
