Francisco Cervelli’s game-tying, two-out, three-run shot in the ninth sparked hope and briefly flipped the main storyline, but a walk-off 10th-inning single from Travis Shaw extended the Miami Marlins’ losing skid to three Tuesday night. Hosting the first of many home games at Sahlen Field in Buffalo, New York, the Blue Jays prevailed in the series opener, 5-4.
Major League Baseball hadn’t been in Buffalo since 1915. The Triple-A facility didn’t seem to bother left-hander Hyun Jin Ryu, Toronto’s top free agent signing this past winter, who held the Miami offense to two hits and a run through six innings.
