Another brilliant effort by a Toronto Blue Jays starter wasn’t enough to off-set another bullpen collapse and more pop-gun offence. The Orioles also moved to within a game of the Jays for the first wild-card spot and the home-field advantage in next Tuesday’s wild-card game. After good work by Brett Cecil, Grilli gave up Mark Trumbo’s Major League-leading 46th home run in the eighth inning, reducing the lead to 2-1. The effort hasn’t changed.”The Jays gave credit to the Orioles. The Tigers were 6-3 winners over Cleveland on Wednesday, moving to within a game of Baltimore for the final wild-card spot.
