Missed opportunities proved costly for the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday night in a 3-2, 10-inning loss to the Minnesota Twins at Rogers Centre.

The Blue Jays loaded the bases in the ninth inning but couldn't score against Twins fireballer Jhoan Duran, who got Brandon Belt on a lineout to force an extra frame.

Michael A. Taylor, who hit a two-run homer in the fifth inning, hit a sacrifice fly in the 10th to plate the go-ahead run as Minnesota (32-32) ended a five-game losing streak.

It was Toronto's first loss in four games. The Blue Jays left 12 runners on base. Ryan Jeffers started the 10th inning on second base as the automatic runner.
