straight victory
TORONTO (AP) --- Bo Bichette homered and scored the deciding run to lead the
Toronto Blue Jays to their season-high eighth straight victory, 3-2 over the
Los Angeles Angels on Sunday.
The American League East-leading Blue Jays improved to 52-38, sweeping a
homestand of seven of more games for the first time since 1994 and second in
franchise history.
Toronto drew even on with Bichette's leadoff homer in the fourth inning. His
12th homer came after his error in the top of the inning loaded the bases for
the Angels. Davis Schneider drove in Bichette in the sixth inning with a single
down the left-field line.
Mike Trout homered for the Angels with two out in the first.
After Bichette's homer, Toronto went ahead in the fourth on a two-out single
from Joey Loperfido, who made his season debut. The Angels tied it in the fifth
when Taylor Ward singled over Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
Blue Jays starter Kevin Gausman struck out nine in 5 2/3 innings, giving up two
runs on seven hits and three walks. Tyler Anderson (2-6) yielded three runs on
eight hits with two walks and two strikeouts in five-plus innings.
Reliever Ryan Burr (1-0) got the victory in his first outing of the season
after dealing with a right-shoulder injury. Jeff Hoffman picked up his 22nd
save.
Key moment With the bases loaded and one out in the fourth inning, Gausman coaxed Gustavo Campero into a 1-3 double play.
Key stat The Blue Jays have 52 wins with six games remaining before the All-Star break. The club record for victories before the break is 53, set in 1985 and matched in 1992.
Up next Yusei Kikuchi (3-6) was scheduled to start for the Angels at home Monday night against Texas. Jose Berrios (4-3) was set to start for Toronto on Monday night in Chicago against the White Sox's Sean Burke (4-7). ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb
