Blue Jays Tag Twins with 10-4 Loss
The Toronto Blue Jays topped the Minnesota Twins, 10-4, in American League action at Target Field. The game was highlighted by the performance of Toronto pitcher Matt Altieri. Altieri, now 10-4, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 11, walking 0, and allowing 4 runs. The first-place Blue Jays have won 5 consecutive games.

Dylan Novakowski, the slick-fielding second baseman , had a direct impact on the outcome. Novakowski contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the fourth inning to put Toronto up, 4-2.

"As well as we've been playing, I think we can play even better," said Toronto manager Nersha Bainco.
