All the homers came off Toronto starter Kevin Gausman (4-6), who was coming off a season-worst outing last Friday in which he surrendered seven runs in two innings against the Chicago Cubs.

Gausman lasted six innings, but gave up six runs on 10 hits with two walks and four strikeouts.

Lefty MacKenzie Gore (5-6) won for the first time since May 29. He went seven innings, allowing three runs on four hits with a walk and five strikeouts.

Jacob Latz registered his 15th save, despite surrendering a two-run homer to straightaway centre field from Kazuma Okamoto in the ninth. It was Okamoto’s team-leading 18th long ball.

The Blue Jays (39-42) loaded the bases with none out in the fifth inning. A Davis Schneider sacrifice fly and a two-run double from Myles Straw cashed in Toronto’s other runs.

Takeaways

Blue Jays: Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit into a double play in the first inning, struck out in the fourth, grounded out in the sixth and struck out again in the ninth.
