The Toronto Blue Jays have acquired Toronto-born catcher Russell Martin from free agency. Martin, 31, is a three-time All Star coming off what is arguably his best season playing for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Russell Martin’s 20th home run of the season led the New York Yankees to 11-4 win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday night.
The Toronto native’s three-run homer was part of a four-run sixth inning rally that sealed the game for the Yankees.
