Lourdes Gurriel Jr. left his imprint on the 10-4 Toronto win against the Kansas City Royals. Gurriel Jr. was 2 for 4 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. The win has Toronto at 61-90.

It could have been a different outcome for Toronto, had it not been for Cavan Biggio, the 25-year old second baseman . Biggio contributed a 2-run single in the top of the sixth inning to put Toronto up, 5-2.

"We did more than enough to get the win," said Biggio.
