ATLANTA (AP) --- Chad Dallas allowed one run in 3 2/3 innings in his major
league debut and combined with five other Toronto pitchers on a four-hitter as
the Blue Jays beat Chris Sale and the Atlanta Braves 7-2 on Thursday night to
end a four-game losing streak.
Myles Straw drove in three runs on two hits in Toronto's 16-hit attack.
Sale (8-4) allowed three runs on a season-high 10 hits in 5 2/3 innings. Straw
singled in two runs and Charles McAdoo added a run-scoring single in Toronto's
three-run third inning. Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who doubled and scored in the
third, and Ernie Clement each had three hits.
Tyler Heineman doubled in two runs off Reynaldo Lpez in Toronto's four-run
ninth.
Toronto left-hander Mason Fluharty made his 33rd appearance of the season and
recorded the first four outs as the opener in only his third career start.
Dallas (1-0), who was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo, allowed two hits and one
run with two walks and two strikeouts.
Tyler Rogers, Jeff Hoffman, Braydon Fisher and Louis Varland followed Dallas.
Varland recorded the final four outs for his ninth save.
Mauricio Dubn hit his fifth homer off Fisher in the eighth.
Blue Jays right-hander Simeon Woods Richardson, acquired from the Minnesota
Twins on Wednesday, will join the team in Toronto on Friday. Blue Jays
right-hander Hayden Juenger was optioned to Buffalo and right-hander Tanner
Andrews was designated for assignment.
Braves catcher Austin Wynns, acquired from the Los Angeles Angels for cash,
entered the game in the eighth inning.
