Published Jun. 12, 2016 6:47 p.m. ET

TORONTO (AP) Russell Martin hit a three-run homer, Kevin Pillar had a solo shot and the Toronto Blue Jays used a five-run first inning to beat the Baltimore Orioles 10-9 on Sunday.

Edwin Encarnacion scored three runs and extended his streak of reaching base safely to nine plate appearances before grounding into a fielder's choice in the sixth as the Blue Jays took three of four from the AL East leaders.

Encarnacion hit three home runs in that span, including a game-ending blast Friday night.

The Blue Jays hit a season-high seven doubles, including four in the first inning.
