Blue Jays Stun Rays, 7-5
The Tampa Bay Rays could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Wilson Alvarez into a win. Instead, the Toronto Blue Jays prevailed, 7-5. Alvarez threw 6.2 innings allowing 4 runs. Tom Henke snagged the win in relief. He goes to 1-0 on the season. Esteban Yan suffered the loss. The loss drops Tampa Bay to 3-1.

Toronto used the timely hitting of John Olerud to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Blue Jays on top, 6-5. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"It was a solid, all-around game for us," said Toronto manager .
