The Toronto Blue Jays stopped the St. Louis Cardinals, 9-5, behind an impressive performance from Vladimir Guerrero Jr.. The 25-year old first baseman made life miserable for St. Louis pitching. He was 3-3 with 2 home runs and a walk, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. Adam Macko notched the win in relief. The left-hander allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 4.1 innings. His record now sits at 6-7. With the win, Toronto has a record of 68-80. St. Louis falls to 80-67.

With Toronto leading 6-4 in the bottom of the fourth, Guerrero Jr. hit a cutter from Andre Granillo for a 2-run home run. It was his 19th home run of the season and put the Blue Jays ahead, 8-4.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Guerrero Jr..
