Special to the Cape Coral Daily Breeze

Josh Kruezer picked a great time to belt his 13th home run of the season, a two-run shot in the bottom of the eighth, to lead the Dunedin Blue Jays to a 2-1 win over the Fort Myers Miracle Thursday night.

The Miracle have played 31 one-run games this year, falling to 13-18 in those contests.

Jays starter Brandon Magee went 7 2-3 innings, allowing the lone Miracle run on eight hits, also with two walks and three strikeouts.

Catcher Jeff Christy had an RBI single for the Miracle.
