Shane Bieber pitched six effective innings, George Springer had a homer and two doubles, and the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the visiting Baltimore Orioles 11-2 on Sunday afternoon.
Bieber (3-1) allowed one run, four hits and one walk with five strikeouts to help the Blue Jays complete a three-game sweep. Alejandro Kirk had three hits and Addison Barger collected three RBIs as Toronto took the season series 7-6.
Coby Mayo and Colton Cowser hit solo home runs for the Orioles.
Mayo homered for the second consecutive at-bat when he slugged an 0-1 fastball from Bieber to center with one out in the second inning. He also homered in the ninth inning on Saturday.
Toronto's first hit against starter Albert Suarez on Sunday was Andres Gimenez's one-out double to left in the third. On the next pitch, Springer doubled off the wall in right center to tie the game.
Suarez allowed one run, two hits and one walk with five strikeouts in three innings. It was first start and fifth outing of the season that was interrupted by a long stint on the injured list.
Toronto scored twice against Grant Wolfram (3-1) in the fourth. Kirk and Daulton Varsho had infield hits with one out, and both scored when Ernie Clement grounded a double that bounced off the third base bag into the corner.
Baltimore's Carson Ragsdale came out in the fifth to make his major league debut and yielded a homer to his first batter when Springer smashed a 3-1 fastball to left center.
Kirk led off the home sixth with a single, was forced at second on Clement's grounder, and Joey Loperfido stroked an RBI double to left center.
Cowser homered to left center against Louis Varland with two outs in the seventh.
Springer led off the bottom of the seventh with a double against Ragsdale. Nathan Lukes singled, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. walked, and Barger hit a three-run double to the left-field corner to make the score 8-2. Kirk blooped an RBI single to right. Varsho doubled, Clement chopped an RBI infield single, and Loperfido's fielder's-choice choice grounder scored another run.
Baltimore infielder Luis Vazquez pitched a perfect eighth.
