Blue Jays Roll to 8-2 Win Over Red Sox
Toronto Blue Jays starter Walker Buehler turned in a top-notch performance against the Boston Red Sox at Rogers Centre. The result was a win for the Blue Jays, 8-2. The winner was Toronto reliever Zack Thompson, now 4-3. The loser was Jalen Beeks. Paul Sewald locked down his 3rd save.

Marcus Semien was a prime factor in the win for the Blue Jays. In the bottom of the seventh with two out, the 32-year old second baseman hit a bases-clearing triple. He was 1 for 1 with a triple, while adding 3 RBI.

Said losing manager Timothy Farmer: "Give the Blue Jays credit. They took advantage of our mistakes."

Toronto is now 68-80.
