Blue Jays Pocket 10-4 Win Against Tampa Bay
Blue Jays second baseman Josh Morgan left his imprint on his team's 10-4 win over the Tampa Bay Rays. Morgan went 2-4 with 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2 for Toronto in the contest. The Toronto win streak is now 3 games.

Toronto first baseman Rintaro Ikeda contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the sixth. With two down, he hit a curveball to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 179th hit of the season and put the Blue Jays ahead, 7-4.

Ikeda said, "Whether you hit the ball hard, you walk, you have a long at-bat, 10 or 12 pitches, or you hit a homer, you're just trying to do anything you can do to help the team win."
