Charles McAdoo homers and Blue Jays win 2-1 to hand the Red Sox their 3rd straight loss

Charles McAdoo homered and Jameson Taillon pitched four scoreless innings before leaving with an injury as the Toronto Blue Jays beat Boston 2-1 on Monday night to hand the Red Sox their third loss in a row.

In a game that handed the Boston Red Sox their third consecutive loss, the Toronto Blue Jays emerged victorious with a final score of 2-1. Charles McAdoo was the star of the night, hitting his second major league home run in just nine career games. McAdoo came to bat leading off the fifth inning and drove in the Blue Jays' lone run.

Jameson Taillon pitched four innings of scoreless baseball before leaving the game with an injury to his forearm. Simeon Woods-Richardson replaced Taillon in the fifth inning and secured the win with three strong innings. The Red Sox' bullpen, led by Louis Varland who sealed the game with a scoreless ninth inning, played a crucial role as well.

The Blue Jays' victory comes after a nine-game winning streak for Boston, which followed a 27-win stretch that set a franchise record.
