The Toronto Blue Jays did just enough to sneak past the Minnesota Twins, 4-3, at Rogers Centre. Toronto pitcher Marcus Stroman earned player of the game honors. Toronto leads the American League East Division by 6½ games.

Toronto won the game in the bottom of the 14th inning. With one out and Bobby Poyner on the mound for Minnesota, right fielder Keon Broxton hit a dramatic solo home run, bringing Blue Jays fans to their feet.

"Exhilarating win," said Broxton.
