Grichuk sacrifice fly give Blue Jays 5-4 win over Orioles

TORONTO — A Randal Grichuk pinch-hit sacrifice fly in the eighth inning was enough to save the Blue Jays from being red-faced for the second straight outing against the Baltimore Orioles.

Grichuk's fly ball to centre scored Bo Bichette to give Toronto a 5-4 victory and avoid another loss to the Orioles before 14,262 at Rogers Centre on Wednesday.

The Orioles (41-91) have the worst record in Major League Baseball but managed to upend the Blue Jays (70-62) 4-2 on Tuesday.

Bichette led off the eighth inning with a fluky infield hit that got by Orioles reliever Dillon Tate (0-5).
