Johan Oviedo earned his first major league win since 2023 and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Toronto Blue Jays 2-1 to take the three-game series.

The Pittsburgh Pirates were defeated 7-3 by the Toronto Blue Jays in the second game of the series on Tuesday night. Mitch Keller’s struggles continued and he was bounced after allowing five runs on seven hits in 3.1 innings.

Oviedo took on Blue Jays designated hitter George Springer and a 10-pitch duel ensued, with Springer hitting a slider 355 feet that stayed just fair for a leadoff home run, putting the road team up 1-0.

That said, it’s the fourth time the Jays have dropped a series to a last-place team this season, an annoying blip in their overall record. In July, they dropped two of three to the Athletics and three of four to the Orioles. In June, they lost two of three to the White Sox.

Tommy Pham was greeted with boos by a large gathering of Toronto Blue Jays fans following a spat in the series opener, but the left fielder came up big for the Pittsburgh Pirates in their 2-1 win at PNC Park on Wednesday afternoon.

The pitch in question was this 2-0 sinker from Blue Jays lefty Brendon Little. According to TruMedia's calculations, that pitch had a 58.9% called strike probability -- that's based on empirical data, and not whether or not it should be called a strike based on the rulebook or any given umpire's judgment.

Toronto Blue Jays star Vladimir Guerrero Jr. left Monday night's game in Pittsburgh with an injury, but the team is now receiving a positive update on him.

The benches briefly cleared during Pittsburgh's 5-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday night. Pham's demonstrable reaction to drawing a walk in the seventh inning elicited a response from Toronto catcher Tyler Heineman, and things escalated from there.
