Blue Jays Roll Over Rays, 9-3
Toronto designated hitter Belchyor Meirelles contributed to his team's 9-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays. Meirelles, who is tied for 10th in the AL in bases on balls with 58, went 2 for 4 with 2 runs scored to lead the offensive attack for the Blue Jays. The winning pitcher was Bobby Pedreira. He tossed 103 pitches over 7.1 innings, allowing 3 runs on 8 hits. Tim McKay earned his 1st save in 5 chances.

Toronto took a 5-3 lead on Andy Nance's 1st home run of the season. The 3-run home run came off Tampa Bay pitcher Luis Estrada in the bottom of the seventh.

"Some of the guys in here work hard, some of the guys just kind of fall out of bed and get it done. Whatever works I guess, we won this one," Nance told the Toronto Observer.

The victory makes Toronto 44-89.
