The Toronto Blue Jays took another step toward a turnaround at the end of a rough month, posting their first series win in four ties in well-rounded fashion.
Berrios pitched around a season-high five walks and into the sixth inning for Toronto to beat his old team, and the Blue Jays blanked the Minnesota Twins 3-0 on Sunday.
Daulton Varsho scored all the way from first base on Kirk's hit. Handling center field for Kevin Kiermaier -- the day after he twice had a leaping catch attempt turn into a Twins home run when those balls bounced off his glove and into the grass berm -- Varsho was superb. He assisted on the third out of the fourth inning when he fielded a single and threw out Alex Kirilloff at third.
Jordan Romano recorded his 12th save with a scoreless ninth, allowing a two-out single to rookie Matt Wallner. He was 2 for 2 with two walks and has reached base in eight straight plate appearances."You're going to go through a rough stretch at some point during the year, and for us it's like right now," Varsho said. "Hopefully we can get hot here and finish off the year strong.
"Every time the opportunities were in front of us, every time there was something we could have done, it felt like we went in the wrong direction," manager Rocco Baldelli said.Twins rookie Edouard Julien, a native of Quebec City, Canada, whose favorite boyhood team was the Blue Jays, had a rough afternoon. He made a diving stop of Varsho's two-out single in the second, but he dropped the ball before he could make the throw to first. The play was ruled a hit.
