The Toronto Blue Jays stopped the Seattle Mariners, 6-1, at Safeco Field. The Blue Jays got a big game from Jorge Soler, who went 2-4 with a home run, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3. Marcus Stroman got credit for the win, improving to 11-4. He allowed no runs on 3 hits in 5 innings. Jordan Lyles got the save, his 1st in 1 chances.

Soler had a key at-bat for Toronto early in the game. With runners on 1st and 2nd, he hit a 3-run home run. It was his 17th home run of the season and gave Toronto an early 3-0 lead.

"We'll pop the top on a cold one and get back to work tomorrow," Soler said.

The first-place Blue Jays, at 69-39, now lead their division by 7½ games.
