The Boston Red Sox trumped the Toronto Blue Jays, 9-7, at Rogers Centre. Boston shortstop Xander Bogaerts was terrific. He went 2 for 4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Boston pitcher Penn Murfee got the win. He's now 1-1. Mike Fiers was tagged with the loss. Edwin Diaz was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 21 of 23 save opportunities.

Bogaerts contributed in the top of the seventh. With the bases loaded, he hit a bases-clearing double. It was one at-bat among others that helped Boston get the win.

"We came out aggressive," said Red Sox manager Matt Spencer. "We came out swinging the bats."

The win puts Boston at 41-60.
