Little Hurt
The Toronto Blue Jays start the post-Frank Thomas period with a win over the Tigers. David Eckstein wielded the big bat, doubling , homering and driving in three runs. It was a pretty good day for the five Blue Jays infielders as all five picked up at least one hit and combined to go 8 for 19 with four runs and four RBI. A.J. Burnett didn't pitch well, walking six in five innings, but he only allowed three runs, good enough for the win. The bullpen, however, struck out five without a walk in their four innings of work.
The Tigers have now been outscored by 40 runs, 117 to 77. They are currently farther out of first place than any team in the American League.
