Rays Lose Again, 4-2, to Blue Jays
The Toronto Blue Jays picked up a win at Tropicana Field, knocking off the Tampa Bay Rays, 4-2. Starting pitcher Doyle Alexander played a key role in the triumph. Alexander picked up the win for Toronto, going 6.1 innings. He gave up 1 run on 6 hits. He now sports a record of 7-7. At 53-41, Toronto is in second place in the American League Eastern Division.

Toronto used a clutch at-bat from Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to capture the win. The first baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Blue Jays ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Doyle definitely kept his composure, kept making pitches," said Toronto manager .
