Trash Pandas Rally Late to Clip Cincinnati
Cincinnati designated hitter Jerry Blake was sensational. He hit 2 home runs. But it wasn't enough to rally his team to a win. Toronto beat the Royals, 6-5. The winner was Toronto reliever Josh Flaten, now 3-2. The loser was Kevin Kovach. The Trash Pandas are now 77-66.

Toronto got a game-changing hit from D.J. Van Diest. The center fielder blasted a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a winner.

"This joint was rocking," said Van Diest.
