Bichette, Barger propel Blue Jays to 6-3 comeback win over Mariners

May 10, 2025 | 10:01 PM

SEATTLE (AP) — Addison Barger hit a tiebreaking single in the eighth inning and the Toronto Blue Jays rallied from a three-run deficit to beat the Seattle Mariners 6-3 on Saturday night.

Bo Bichette’s two-run homer in the fifth began Toronto’s comeback. Barger tied it 3-3 with an RBI groundout in the sixth, and Alejandro Kirk finished with four hits.

Myles Straw provided insurance with a two-run single off Carlos Vargas (1-2) in the eighth.

Mason Fluharty (3-0) worked 1 1/3 perfect innings and Jeff Hoffman struck out all three batters in the ninth for his ninth save.

Barger also had two RBIs — and three doubles — in Friday night’s 6-3 victory by the Blue Jays, who have won three in a row following a four-game skid.

UP NEXT

The teams wrap up their three-game series on Sunday. Right-hander Jose Urena (0-0) will pitch for the Jays, while right-hander Bryce Miller (2-3) will be on the hill for the Mariners.
