Toronto Blue Jays at Athletics

The Athletics beat the Blue Jays 2-0 at Sutter Health Park, riding a third-inning solo home run from Henry Bolte and four scoreless innings from starter Basso. Michael Lorenzen took the loss for Toronto. Basso worked four innings and struck out four on 68 pitches, allowing no runs and carrying a 3.86 ERA. He gave the bullpen a clean slate. Scott Blewett earned the win in relief, and Elvis Alvarado recorded the save. Bolte's fly ball to left center in the third provided all the offense Oakland needed. The outfielder finished 1-for-4 with his tenth home run of the season and one RBI. Max Muncy added two hits in two at-bats, advancing to third on a Donovan Walton flyout in the fourth. Ernie Clement collected one hit in three trips for Toronto. The K model had Basso at four strikeouts, matching his actual total. Fisher managed just one strikeout, well short of projection. The NRFI model leaned neutral, and the first inning saw scoring.
