Toronto starter Nathan Eovaldi had a strong outing against the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 6-3 win. Toronto reliever Chad Green picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Aaron Civale absorbed the loss. Tampa Bay drops to 1-1.

George Springer, the 34-year old right fielder , had a direct impact on the outcome. Springer contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put Toronto up, 4-3.

"Nathan was Nathan," said Blue Jays manager Larry Paullin. "We know what we'll get whenever he takes the mound."
