Blue Jays Send Oakland Home with 5-1 Loss
Justin Steele, who is on pace for 203 strikeouts this season, imposed his will on the Athletics from the get-go. Relying mainly on his cutter, the left-hander spearheaded the 5-1 Toronto triumph. Toronto is now 41-50, Oakland 49-40.

Ke'Bryan Hayes, who finished 5th in the AL in doubles with 43 in 2022, aided the Toronto cause with a run-scoring single in the bottom of the third. For the game, the shortstop was 1-2 with a walk.

"I liked his command," said Toronto manager Dan D. "Justin was throwing strikes."
