Teoscar Hernandez delivered a go-ahead hit for the Toronto Blue Jays for the second straight game,
but it was a defensive play by him that saved Toronto’s 6-5 win over the Minnesota Twins on Tuesday.

Hernandez was part of a relay that helped nab Minnesota’s C.J. Cron at the plate to end the game. Hernandez fielded a double by Byron Buxton in left field and fired the ball to shortstop Freddy Galvis, who relayed to catcher Danny Jansen.

The game-ending relay came two innings after Hernandez’s big hit. Hernandez singled off Twins reliever Trevor Hildenberger in the top of the seventh to give Toronto a 6-4 lead.

Aaron Sanchez (2-1) allowed four runs in six innings to earn the win for Toronto. Reliever Trevor May (1-1) was charged with the loss for Minnesota.

Eddie Rosario, Jorge Polanco and Marwin Gonzalez homered for the Twins.
