Matt Altieri made an impact in the 5-4 Toronto win over Kansas City. Altieri, who finished 5th in the NL in triples with 13 in 2041, threw 7.0 innings allowing 4 runs. Toronto pitcher Aaron Linkous got the win. He's now 3-0. Josh Moncada was tagged with the loss. The first-place Blue Jays have won 8 in a row.

Toronto took a 5-4 lead on Brock Van Gilder's 16th home run of the season. The 2-run home run came off Kansas City pitcher Josh Moncada in the bottom of the eighth.

"We squandered some opportunities," said Kansas City manager Mike Miller.
