Blue Jays hit 3 homers to power past Rays 5-1
In a 5-1 victory, the Toronto Blue Jays overcame the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday, thanks to powerful hitting and strong pitching.

Shane Bieber showcased his durability, pitching seven strong innings, allowing only four hits and walking none.
The Rays, who entered the game with the most home victories in MLB, suffered three consecutive losses at Tropicana Field. Toronto will next face the Yankees in a three-game series, while Tampa Bay will open a weekend series in Baltimore against the Orioles.
