Tigers Get Past Toronto, 3-2
The Toronto Blue Jays got a superb performance from pitcher Robert Stephenson, but the Detroit Tigers still won the game, 3-2. Stephenson threw 7.0 innings allowing 2 runs. Detroit is now 25-20. Toronto is 23-22.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the top of the ninth, with the game tied, Johan Sala was at the plate when Detroit scored 1 on an error. The miscue enabled the Tigers to go in front, 3-2.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said Toronto manager José Soto. "But we decided not to take it."
