TORONTO — Alejandro Kirk drove in the winning run with a bases-loaded single in the 11th inning and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the St. Louis Cardinals 4-3. After the Cardinals intentionally walked Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to begin the 11th, Leo Jiménez advanced both Guerrero and automatic runner Nathan Lukes with a bunt single. Will Wagner grounded into a fielder's choice before Kirk won it with a single over the drawn-in outfield off right-hander Ryan Fernandez (1-5). It was the first game-winning hit of Kirk's career. Erik Swanson (2-2) worked one inning for the win as Toronto improved to 3-7 in September.
