Turnaround Fair Play

In April, Jon Lester threw eight shutout innings against the Blue Jays. It was a turning point in Lester's season as that game started a streak in which Jon went 11-2 with a 2.65 ERA. The Blue Jays got a chance to get back at Lester for that game and did so with a vengeance. Toronto banged out eight hits in 2 1/3 innings scored seven runs, five of them earned. They're batting in the bottom of the fourth now (almost two hours into the game) with men on second and third with two out. They're in a good position to win this game with a 7-0 lead.

Update: Overbay singles off Youkilis's glove and it's 9-0 Toronto.

Update: Vernon Wells hits his second home run of the game to make the score 11-0 Toronto. That gives Wells 12 homers on the season, passing Matt Stairs for the team lead.
