Soggy conditions did not keep Boston and Toronto from playing their scheduled game.

The Boston Red Sox topped the Toronto Blue Jays by a score of 6-5. Leading the way was catcher Dan Combs. Combs went 2-3 with a home run and a double, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Red Sox. Al Wills earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 3 innings. He upped his record to 1-0.

With Boston trailing 5-3 in the bottom of the fifth, Combs hit a fastball from Robert Stephenson for a 3-run home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Red Sox ahead, 6-5.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Combs told the Boston Daily News. "It's as simple as that."

With the loss, Toronto drops to 6-7.
