Blue Jays Win Nail-Biter
Toronto left fielder Michael McKee made his presence felt in the 6-5 Blue Jays triumph over the Atlantic City Aces. McKee went 4-6 with 3 doubles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Al Downing snagged the win in relief. In 2 innings, the left-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit. He's now 1-0 on the season. The Blue Jays, now 10-5, have been red hot.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 12th. With no one out, McKee hit a changeup from Mark Moran for a run-scoring single. The Blue Jays, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"It feels good to get this one," McKee told the Toronto News.
