Every Blue Jays starter got a hit Thursday, led by Guerrero, who was 3-for-5 with two RBI. Lukes, Clement, Loperfido and Will Wagner each got two hits. Meanwhile, Eric Lauer provided strong pitching, allowing one run and five hits over eight innings with six strikeouts. Chad Green allowed three runs in the ninth inning, including a homer by Spencer Torkelson, but the Toronto lead was too big for that to matter.
