Victory Pushes Blue Jays Record to 63-59
Toronto parlayed a decent outing from starter Dave Stieb into a solid win over the Boston Red Sox. The final score was 6-4. Stieb yielded 3 runs over 8 innings to notch the win. He scattered 4 hits, walked 0, and struck out 8. His record improves to 8-10. Duane Ward got the save, his 29th in 33 chances.

Candy Jim Taylor had a big 2-run double for the Blue Jays in the bottom of the third inning. With Toronto trailing 2-1 and the bases loaded, he got a curveball from 22-year old right-handed pitcher Smoky Joe Wood and swatted a double to right. It was his 14th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Blue Jays ahead, 3-2.

"We'll sip on a cold one and savor this win," said Stieb.

The win elevated the Blue Jays to 63-59.
