Win Streak Now at 8 for Blue Jays
The Toronto Blue Jays bested the Cleveland Guardians, 8-6, at Progressive Field. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was one of the standouts. He went 2-4 with a home run, a double, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. Toronto reliever Brandon Eisert picked up the win, while Tanner Bibee took the loss for Cleveland. Toronto has now reeled off 8 straight wins.

A key moment came with no one out in the top of the sixth. That's when Guerrero Jr. hit a fastball from Tanner Bibee for a 2-run home run, putting Toronto up, 6-5.

"We got the victory," said Guerrero Jr.. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."
