Kevin Pillar has solo homer, four hits to lead Blue Jays past Tigers
TORONTO — Kevin Pillar still had a triple play from the night before on his mind despite a strong performance at the plate on Saturday.
The Blue Jays centre-fielder had a solo homer and four hits to lead Toronto past the Detroit Tigers 5-4.
“In that moment, it was maybe an all-time low,” said Pillar. “(I’m) a guy that can run a little bit, I never envisioned myself hitting into a triple play.
“You’re going home, you had four at-bats, you make seven outs, that’s a pretty rough day.”
