MLB round-up: Orioles get grand slam from Holliday in win over Jays
Holliday, who had only two hits across 34 at-bats during a spring promotion, returned from Triple-A Norfolk. He was 0-for-2 on Wednesday before extending Baltimore's 4-3 lead with the long ball to right off reliever Yerry Rodriguez. It was Holliday's only hit of the game.
Colton Cowser also homered for the Orioles, who lost All-Star third baseman Jordan Westburg to a fractured right hand after he was hit by a Rodriguez fastball in the fifth inning.
Grayson Rodriguez (13-4) allowed four runs (three earned) and tallied six strikeouts over six innings as Baltimore won for the fourth time in five games. Paolo Espino (0-1), in his third outing of the season, took the loss by giving up four runs in four innings for Toronto, which has lost three of its past four.
