  "account": "Vladimir Guerrero Jr. contributed a solo home run to the Toronto Blue Jays' 8-1 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday. The 25-year-old slugger added four hits overall, while fellow outfielders George Springer and Kazuma Okamoto also went deep. The win solidified the Blue Jays' position in the AL wild card race.\n\nToronto had begun the season one game behind Cleveland in the wild card standings. However, Baltimore entered the game three games back. Starting pitcher Dylan Cease (11-5) went five strong innings, striking out nine batters and allowing just one run and four hits. He now leads the AL with 236 strikeouts.\n\nSpringer's two-run homer in the fifth inning and Guerrero's ninth-inning solo blast provided the decisive runs. Springer's display of power came with his 15th career home run. Okamoto surpassed Eric Hinske's Blue Jays rookie record with 85 RBIs. Orioles relief pitcher Trevor Rogers (10-10) allowed four runs and seven hits in six innings pitched.",
