Blue Jays Come Back Late to Clip Rockies
The Colorado Rockies and Toronto Blue Jays cranked it up at Mile High Stadium.

Toronto right-hander Scott Garrelts made an effective start against the Colorado Rockies at Mile High Stadium, leading his team to a 9-5 win. With the win over Colorado, the Blue Jays improved to 75-54.

Toronto used the timely hitting of Darrin Fletcher to capture the win. The catcher stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Blue Jays on top, 6-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but he made it count.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Fletcher told reporters after the game.
