Whit Merrifield hit a three-run home run and Yusei Kikuchi pitched six strong innings as the visiting Toronto Blue Jays earned an 8–1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday, July 26, in the deciding game of a three-game series.
Merrifield drove in four runs, including a sacrifice fly in the second inning for an early 1–0 lead, as the Blue Jays recovered from a heartbreaking defeat Tuesday when they held a four-run lead in the ninth inning. Danny Jansen added a home run for Toronto.
