In the ninth inning, Rojas, the first batter, hit a double on the right-wing line against Verlander, who took the mound, and Crawford hit a ground ball to shortstop against the immediately changed pitcher Brian Abreu to reach third base with one out. Rodriguez barely avoided a scoreless defeat by hitting a sacrifice fly.

Toronto has six games left in the regular season. After three consecutive games with the Yankees, it will lead to three consecutive games with Tampa Bay. It's a formidable schedule, but if Houston catches Seattle like this day for the third place, Toronto and Ryu Hyun-jin can take the fall baseball ticket. Seattle will end the season with four consecutive Texas games, which rank first in the West, following three consecutive games in Houston. 토토사이트
