Ernie Clement contributed to the victory by hitting into a fielder's choice in the sixth inning, allowing George Springer to score as the Blue Jays remained in contention. Brett Bateman and Charles McAdoo added to the Blue Jays' scoring with an RBI double and a sacrifice fly, respectively, in the fifth inning. Myles Straw contributed with a two-out RBI double in the eighth inning. Dylan Cease pitched five innings, striking out seven while allowing three runs on five hits and four walks. Chase Lee, Brendon Little, Braydon Fisher, and Spencer Miles combined for four scoreless innings of relief.
