The Blue Jays were down to their final three outs when Saunders led off the ninth inning with a shot to straightaway center field. According to Statcast, Saunders' fifth of the year traveled 411 feet and left his bat at 103 mph. It was Saunders' first home run since he went deep twice against the Rays on April 29.
