Devil Rays Suffer 4-3 Setback
Toronto rode a decent outing from starter Ed Puig to victory over the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. The final score was 4-3. Puig, now 7-3, was the winner. In 6 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 7, walking 3, and allowing 2 runs. Toronto is now 31-27, Tampa Bay 20-38.

Making an impact for the home team was John Flaherty. In the bottom of the seventh, the 29-year old catcher had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. That made the score 4-2, Blue Jays.

Puig told a Toronto News reporter that he was "very satisfied" with the win.
