Cavan Biggio gets hit by pitch for winning run as Toronto Blue Jays edge Philadelphia Phillies 2-1
It hurt but Cavan Biggio’s patience at the plate handed the Toronto Blue Jays a key win on Tuesday.
Toronto loaded the bases in the eighth when Vladimir Guerrero Jr. drew a one-out walk, joining pinch-hitter Nathan Lukes and Whit Merrifield on the bases. “We saw a lot of pitches and we were able to get on base in the eighth inning,” said Biggio. “Being able to get on base and being able to manufacture a run was huge, especially with Romano coming in.”
George Springer’s RBI single was the only traditional run scored by Toronto in a game dominated by starting pitchers Yusei Kikuchi and Zack Wheeler.
