Blue Jays Come Back Late to Top Tigers, 3-1
The Toronto Blue Jays had to overcome a good performance from Detroit pitcher Andy Cooper to claim a 3-1 win at Comerica Tigers Park. Cooper went 5.2 innings and allowed 1 run. Duane Ward earned the save for Toronto, his 2nd of the year. The win has Toronto at 3-1.

Toronto used the timely hitting of Josh Donaldson to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Blue Jays on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"It was a tough night at the plate," said Detroit manager .
