Blue Jays Take Down Trappers, 7-5
The Toronto Blue Jays faced a tough opponent in Edmonton pitcher Bill Gray, but did just enough to pull out the victory at John Ducey Park by a final score of 7-5. Gray went 6 innings and allowed 5 runs. Toronto reliever Marcelino Lopez picked up the win to move to 1-0. Lawrence Alexander suffered the loss. Toronto goes to 5-3 with the win.

Toronto used the timely hitting of Sean Brown to seize the win. The left fielder stroked a 2-run single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Blue Jays on top, 7-5. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

In postgame remarks, Brown simply said: "Here's to a great win!"
