The Toronto Blue Jays lead in the AL East is at three full games as we go to press. They get another impressive start from Ace LHP David Price (W, 16-5) as the Blue Birds were all over the Chop Shop 404 in Braves Country.

Price went a strong seven frames allowing a run on six hits as he walked three and struck out six. It was the 'Jays Offense all over Braves Country starter Shelby Miller (L, 5-15) as he allows five runs on seven hits in just over three frames into the 4th.  His game was numbered after both Joey Bats dba Jose Bautista and Russell Martin went two-bagger in the 1st frame as well as a Ryan Goins sac-fly for a 4-0 lead.

The Braves added one in their half of the 1st as the 'Jays would tack on five more runs and netting a 9-1 victory. Russell Martin led the Blue Birds Attack going 2 for 5 scoring two runs with four ribbies and adding a 9th inning two-run "Big Fly"!

The 'Jays move to 83-62 while the Bronx Bombers at 80-65 is just three games back in the AL East. Braves Country playing for 2016 jobs fall to 57-89 a whole month back of 1st place in the NL East.
