WP - Jordan Hicks (1-0)
LP - Eduard Bazardo (0-1)

The Umpires called the game in the 7th due to the heavy rain, and that MAY have saved the Jays as they had a tight, 6-5 lead at the time.

Today's win means the Jays and Red Sox leave their series in a tie atop the AL East.

WP - Justin Wilson (2-0)

Whit Merrifield came and asked to talk about a contract extension, and while he is absolutely worth keeping around, it would take a hefty increase (he currently makes $6.5M and is looking for multiple years at $21M), and we don't have the budget room for it.
