Toronto pulled off a dramatic 9-8 comeback victory over Minnesota, led by Ty France whose pinch hit came with an old bat and ignited an eighth-inning rally. Addison Barger snapped a 2-for-30 skid with a two-run double, helping the Blue Jays erase deficits and crown the night with a late lead for their AL-best 40th comeback win. The win solidified Toronto at home and kept their pace atop the division while fantasy managers noticed late-inning magic in a matchup that produced eight solo homers between the clubs.

Seranthony Domínguez earned the win and Jeff Hoffman sealed his 29th save as Toronto improved to 78-56. Lauer was tagged for six earned runs in 4 2/3, but Toronto’s bullpen and timely hitting carried the night. Barger remains a regular contributor with a strong late-season track record in runners-in-scoring-position, while Buxton and Keaschall supplied Twins power in a game that showcased the volatility and upside of late-inning baseball for fantasy rosters.
