The Toronto Blue Jays got a magnificent performance from pitcher Lazaro Leyva, who stifled the Detroit offense en route to a 3-1 Blue Jays win at Rogers Centre. The first-place Blue Jays have won 7 in a row.

One significant plate appearance for Toronto came with one out in the bottom of the second inning. Blue Jays left fielder José Ruíz hit a run-scoring double, which helped his team go on to win.

"As well as we've been playing, I think we can play even better," said Toronto manager José Soto.
