Boston Loses, 8-7, to Toronto in 11
The Toronto Blue Jays wiggled past the Boston Red Sox, 8-7, at Fenway Park. The win was highlighted by the performance of Toronto second baseman Aaron Hill. Rich Rundles picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 2-0. Marcos Mendoza suffered the loss. Toronto has a mark of 5-3 after the win.

Toronto used the timely hitting of Wilson Valdez to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put the Blue Jays on top, 8-7. It was his only hit in 6 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Our team found a way to get it done," said Valdez.
