Reese Olson Shines, but Tigers Lose on Walk-Off Hit in Toronto

  • On Saturday at Rogers Centre, the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Detroit Tigers 2-1 with a walk-off single by Ernie Clement in the ninth inning.
  • The Blue Jays rallied late after trailing 1-0, with Clement's hit coming after Toronto tied the game in the eighth inning off Detroit's starter Reese Olson, who left due to finger discomfort.
  • Spencer Torkelson hit a 399-foot solo home run in the second inning for the Tigers, while Toronto used a bullpen game featuring five pitchers, including starter Eric Lauer who pitched three innings.
  • Jeff Hoffman earned the win for Toronto, improving his record to 4-2, while Clement drove in the winning run with a walk-off single in the ninth inning, marking the second time in his career he has finished a game in that fashion, and emphasized, "We're never out of a game."
  • The loss ended Detroit's four-game winning streak and their MLB-best 26-game streak after leading post-sixth inning, while Toronto improved their 2025 record to 22-23 with 12 come-from-behind wins.
