Summary
Alejandro Kirk’s rehab assignment delivered a major boost for the Blue Jays, as the All-Star catcher smashed a solo home run in his first game back with Single-A Dunedin, helping secure a 4-2 win. The homer, hit opposite way, came while he was batting cleanup and drew a walk before being removed in the seventh. Kirk’s return is timely — his power and experience are sorely needed as the Jays struggle through a four-game losing streak. Rookie Brandon Valenzuela has stepped up admirably behind the plate, but Kirk’s presence elevates the lineup. This strong start signals hope for a swift, impactful return to the big leagues.
