Blue Jays Rally, Walk Off Astros 4-3 in Extra Innings

The Toronto Blue Jays staged a dramatic comeback to defeat the Houston Astros 4-3 in extra innings, fueled by key contributions from Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and Tyler Heineman. Trailing 3-1 heading into the bottom of the ninth, the Blue Jays loaded the bases and Kiner-Falefa's two-run single tied the game, with Heineman ultimately delivering the walk-off grounder in the 10th inning to score the winning run. Guerrero Jr. reached base and advanced the winning run to third before Heineman's fielder's choice, while Jeff Hoffman secured the win with a scoreless 10th inning. The Astros were led offensively by Carlos Correa's two-run homer, but their pitcher Luis Garcia exited early due to right elbow discomfort, marking a setback in his recovery from Tommy John surgery. The victory marked Toronto's 43rd comeback win of the season, extending their lead atop the AL East, with fans and analysts praising the team's resilience and clutch performances. The win highlights the Blue Jays' ability to rally in high-pressure situations while the Astros have struggled recently, losing four of five games.
