Blue Jays Clip Red Sox in Tight Contest
The Boston Red Sox got a superb performance from pitcher Noah Syndergaard, but the Toronto Blue Jays still won the game, 6-4. Syndergaard was named the player of the game despite the loss. He threw 7 innings of 3-hit ball. Marcus Stroman got the win, improving to 10-3. He pitched 7.2 innings, giving up 9 hits and 4 runs, while striking out 2 and walking 0. Trevor Rosenthal got the save, his 24th in 26 chances.

Nicholas Castellanos, who is tied for 4th in the AL in triples with 5, aided the Toronto cause with a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the eighth. For the game, the third baseman drove in one run.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Castellanos.

The Blue Jays own a robust 60-32 mark.
