Charles McAdoo homers and Blue Jays win 2-1 to hand the Red Sox their 3rd
straight loss
TORONTO (AP) --- Charles McAdoo homered and Jameson Taillon pitched four
scoreless innings before leaving with an injury as the Toronto Blue Jays beat
Boston 2-1 on Monday night to hand the Red Sox their third loss in a row.
Boston's skid follows a nine-game winning streak that capped a franchise-record
string of 27 victories in 30 games.
McAdoo hit his second major league home run in nine career games leading off
the fifth. The 24-year-old rookie made his first start at third base in place
of Kazuma Okamoto, a late scratch due to a bruised left knee.
Taillon gave up one hit and walked three before exiting with forearm
discomfort. It was his second start for the Blue Jays and first at home since
being acquired from the Chicago Cubs in a trade on Aug. 2.
Simeon Woods-Richardson (2-7) replaced Taillon to begin the fifth and gave up
one run in three innings for the win. Louis Varland pitched a scoreless ninth
for his 25th save.
Red Sox starter Sonny Gray (14-3) permitted two runs and six hits in six
innings.
