Toronto staged a dramatic eighth-inning comeback to stun Minnesota 9-8 at Rogers Centre. A three-run rally trimmed an 8-6 deficit, sparked by Alejandro Kirk’s pinch single and followed by Addison Barger's 110.3 mph game-winning double off the right-field wall. Davis Schneider homered earlier, Byron Buxton supplied early power for the Twins, and Daulton Varsho’s defensive flashes helped steadied Toronto’s late surge.

Toronto bullpen locked down the late innings, while the Jays leveraged timely hitting and aggressive baserunning to seize the series finale. The win preserves Toronto’s momentum as they head into a high-profile Brewers set, with Barger's breakout moment underscoring a shift in roster depth and the Jays’ willingness to lean on late-inning heroics.
