Blue Jays Rally For Late Win Over Athletics
The Toronto Blue Jays eked out a 5-4 win versus the Oakland Athletics at SkyDome. Nobody did more than pitcher Zane Smith, who captured player of the game honors. Toronto reliever T J Mathews was credited with the win, to go to 3-2. Ramon A. Garcia took the loss for Oakland. Antonio Osuna converted his 26th save in 29 tries.

Ellis Burks was 2-4 with 2 singles for Toronto. The top prospect had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 4-4 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Ramon A. Garcia. It was his 80th RBI of the season.

"Getting ahead of the hitters was the key," said Smith.

The last-place Athletics have dropped 5 straight games.
