Powers Jays in finale
Kirk went 3-for-5 with a grand slam, a two-run homer and a double in Sunday's 13-4 win over Tampa Bay.
Analisi
Kirk put the Jays ahead 5-1 with a grand slam off Ian Seymour in the first inning before extending Toronto's lead to 8-4 in the fifth with his second homer, a 419-foot blast off Edwin Uceta. Following a six-game stretch where he went 0-for-20, Kirk has gone 4-for-8 with three home runs in his last two contests. The 26-year-old catcher will finish the regular season with a .282/.348/.421 slash line, a career-best 15 homers, 76 RBI and 45 runs scored across 506 plate appearances.

Belts 13th homer of 2025
Kirk went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during Toronto's 5-1 win over Tampa Bay on Saturday.
Analisi
Kirk -- who entered Saturday's tilt having gone 0-for-20 with one RBI across the last six games -- gave the Blue Jays a four-run lead in the seventh inning with a 432-foot solo shot to left field. The 26-year-old catcher is up to 13 home runs on the season, which is as many as he tallied across the 2023 and 2024 campaigns combined. Even with his recent struggles at the plate, Kirk is enjoying a strong season in which he's slashing .278/.345/.404 with 43 runs, 17 doubles and 70 RBI across 501 plate appearances.

Getting breather Thursday
Kirk is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Red Sox.
Analisi
Kirk will receive a day of rest after starting at catcher in the first two games of the series. Tyler Heineman will be behind the dish and bat ninth as the Blue Jays try to avoid the sweep.
