Late Offense Lifts Toronto to 3-1 Victory
The Toronto Blue Jays, despite a fine performance by Oakland pitcher Stevenson Agosto, grabbed a 3-1 win at Oakland Coliseum. Agosto allowed 1 run over 6.2 innings. Sandy Rosario was the winner in relief. His record is now 1-6. The losing pitcher was Justin Hampson. Jonathan Papelbon collected his 13th save.

Toronto used the timely hitting of Carl Crawford to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Blue Jays on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Whenever we hold the other team to one run," said Blue Jays manager Carlos Delgado, "I like our chances."

The third-place Athletics have lost 5 straight games.
