Latest on the Blue Jays: Thanks largely to a strong 10-strikeout performance over six innings by Aaron Sanchez, the Toronto Blue Jays were able take the opener of their pivotal three-game series with the Baltimore Orioles 5-1 on Tuesday night.
Holding a two-game lead over the Orioles for the top American League wild-card spot, the Blue Jays have a chance to see their magic number reduced to one on Wednesday should they triumph over Baltimore for the second straight night and if theCleveland Indians defeat the Detroit Tigers.
