Cease Fans 12 in Blue Jays Debut as Toronto Comes Back for 8-7 Win in 11 Innings

Ernie Clement's 11th-inning RBI single capped a comeback after the Blue Jays overcame a 6-2 deficit, securing their second straight walk-off win, officials said.

  • On Saturday at Rogers Centre, Ernie Clement drove in Nathan Lukes with the winning run in the 11th inning to give the Toronto Blue Jays an 8-7 comeback victory over the Athletics.
  • Shea Langeliers hit a grand slam in the seventh inning to give the Athletics a 6-2 lead, but the Blue Jays rallied with runs in the seventh and eighth before Alejandro Kirk's ninth-inning solo homer forced extra innings.
  • Andres Gimenez recorded four singles for the Blue Jays, while Addison Barger brought home Jesus Sanchez with a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning to tie the game; Vladimir Guerrero Jr. reached base four times.
  • Spencer Miles worked the top of the 11th inning for the win, while Athletics right-hander Luis Medina took the loss after intentionally walking Daulton Varsho to get to Clement.
  • The series finale on Sunday features Blue Jays southpaw Eric Lauer starting against Athletics right-hander Luis Morales. This report by The Canadian Press was first published March 28, 2026.
