Alejandro Kirk's first homer of the year lifts Blue Jays over Dodgers 3-1

Alejandro Kirk's first homer of the year lifts Blue Jays over Dodgers 3-1

Kirk went 3 for 3 at the plate and hit his first home run of the season to lead the Toronto Blue Jays past the Los Angeles Dodgers 3-1 on Sunday to snap a five-game losing skid. “To tell you the truth, I didn't even know I was going 0 for 11,” explained Kirk through a translator. Daulton Varsho and Isiah Kiner-Falefa had back-to-back groundouts in the second inning to score runners for Toronto (14-15) before Kirk hit his first homer of the season 381 feet.
