The last time a Major League team achieved something similar was in 2014, when the Tigers and Pirates did it.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">ERNIE CLEMENT WALK OFF! <br><br>BACK TO BACK GAMES WITH WALK OFFS FOR THE BLUE JAYS!<br><br> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/xoOMUl7Ssu\">pic.twitter.com\/xoOMUl7Ssu<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Fliff (@fliff) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/fliff\/status\/2038027561436053993?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 28, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\nAlthough Clement took the headlines, another key protagonist was the debutant Spencer Miles, who earned the victory after pitching an impeccable top of the 11th inning in his debut in the Major Leagues. The right-hander, selected in the Rule 5 Draft, had not pitched beyond Class A in the minor leagues, but responded under pressure, reaching 98 miles per hour and dominating Oakland&#8217;s offense.\n\nMiles even starred in a brilliant defensive play and achieved his first strikeout in the Majors, standing out on a night that will be marked as one of the most exciting in the start of the season.\n\nThe Blue Jays have started the campaign demonstrating character and the ability to react, winning two dramatic consecutive games and sending a clear message at the start of the season: this team doesn&#8217;t give up and knows how to win in decisive moments.\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TORONTO. \u2014 The Toronto Blue Jays won again at the last gasp.
