Blue Jays 3, Rays 2
Marc Rzepczynski pitched six innings, allowing just three hits. (AP)
By Erika Gilbert / MLB.com
In the bottom of the ninth, the Blue Jays went to their bench for a hero and found Rod Barajas, who hit a game-tying home run. The Jays then loaded the bases, and Marco Scutaro scurried home on a wild pitch to seal the victory. Starter Marc Rzepczynski allowed no hits until giving up a two-out single in the sixth.
