WEB GEMS- Top 18th: Roberto Alomar robbed Roberto Kelly of a base hit.
 
Roberto Alomar had 4 hits and 2 RBI as the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the New
York Yankees in 24 innings by the score of 5 to 4 at The Skydome.
 
The game was deadlocked at 2 after nine full innings.  Finally, Toronto pulled
the game out in the 24th inning.  After an out was recorded, Kelly Gruber
kicked off the action when he clubbed a solo home run.  Rene Gonzales was
next and he drew a walk.  Greg Myers then drew a walk.  One out later, Devon
White stepped up to the plate and he drew a walk to load the bases.  Alomar
came up to bat and laced a base-hit making Toronto the winners and sending
the 46,817 fans home happy.  Toronto lit up the scoreboard in the 24th inning
tallying 3 runs.  Toronto rapped out 20 hits for the afternoon.  
 
Bob Macdonald(2-4) got credit for the victory, pitching 1 inning and allowing
no runs. Greg Cadaret(2-6) suffered the loss in relief.
