Victory Takes Blue Jays to 22-17
The Toronto Blue Jays did just enough to secure a victory over the Detroit Tigers, 6-5, at Rogers Centre. Nobody did more than shortstop James Motte. David Wells earned the win for Toronto. He lasted 8 innings, allowing 5 runs on 10 hits, while striking out 6. With the win, he raised his record to 5-3. Brian Wood recorded his 7th save for Toronto.

Motte had an important at-bat with runners on 1st and 2nd in the bottom of the seventh, when he hit a 2-run double. The Blue Jays went on to win.

"Winning is all that really matters and we got it done today," Motte told the Toronto Times.

The Blue Jays bumped their record to 22-17 with this latest triumph.
