📰Game Recap

The Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Minnesota Twins 10-4, fueled by a decisive offensive surge highlighted by a pivotal five-run fourth inning.

Throughout the contest, the Blue Jays' lineup steadily built a commanding lead, creating separation that Minnesota ultimately could not bridge. While the Twins managed to get on the scoreboard, they struggled to generate sustained pressure against Toronto's pitching staff.
