TORONTO — Struggling with injuries after a gruelling 17 games in 17 days, the Toronto Blue Jays needed their hitters at the bottom of the batting order to step…
It was the burly South Korean left-hander’s first win in 444 days after undergoing Tommy John surgery in June 2022. He was in line for a win in Toronto’s 3-1 victory at Cleveland on Aug. 7, but he was pulled from that game in the fourth inning after being hit on the right knee by a line drive.
Swanson got the Cubs on the board in the first inning, doubling into the left-field corner with two outs to score Nico Hoerner and Ian Happ. Both runs were unearned as Happ reached base on an error by Toronto first baseman Brandon Belt. Guerrero drove in another run in the fourth, with his base hit to left field bringing home Merrifield as the Blue Jays led off that inning with three consecutive singles.
