Guerrero hits go-ahead homer in 8th as Blue Jays rally past Red Sox 4-2
- On Thursday evening in Toronto, the Blue Jays secured a 4-2 victory over the Red Sox, thanks to a decisive three-run homer by Vladimir Guerrero Jr. In the eighth inning.
- Toronto fell behind 2-0 by the end of the sixth inning but mounted a comeback starting with a solo home run from Daulton Varsho in the seventh, shortly after he was reactivated from the injured list earlier in the week.
- Right-Hander José Berríos delivered 6⅔ innings, giving up two runs and striking out eight to match his season best, while Mason Fluharty retired all four hitters he encountered before Yimi Garcia secured his second save of the year.
- Guerrero delivered a go-ahead 404-foot home run on an 85.8 mph curveball from Justin Slaten, overcoming a 2-1 deficit. Slaten suffered his second consecutive loss despite Tanner Houck’s solid seven innings, giving up just one run and four hits.
- Toronto’s win marked back-to-back victories for the first time since mid-April, highlighting improved performance when hitting multiple home runs, as they are now 3-0 in such games this season.
