Blue Jays Need Extra Innings to Top Twins, 9-6
The Toronto Blue Jays stopped the Minnesota Twins, 9-6, in 10 innings at Target Field. The Blue Jays got a big game from Johan Limonta, who was 1 for 1 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Eric Abreu earned his 1st save, after closing out the game. The Blue Jays go to 19-31 with the win.

Toronto used a timely hit from Pantalião Lima to get the win. The shortstop stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the tenth inning to put the Blue Jays ahead, 8-5. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a difference-maker.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Lima told the Toronto News. "It's as simple as that."
