Cliff Brantley was saddled with the loss. Steve Shirley was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 28 of 33 save opportunities.

The Blue Jays extended their lead in the bottom of the fourth. With one out and a runner on 1st, Dante Bichette hit a 2-run home run to make it 8-3, Toronto.

"I just try to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Bichette.

Toronto has a 3-game win streak, while Seattle has lost 3 in a row.
