The Toronto Blue Jays and Cleveland Indians split their double header today. Both games were by the score of 3-0 as well.
In the first game each team only had five hits as it was a pitchers duel between Fausto Carmona and A.J. Burnett. Burnett didn’t get any run support and took the loss as he pitched 7 2/3 innings giving up five hits and three runs.
In the second game however, it was the Blue Jays coming out on top with a 3-0 victory. It took ten innings to get the job done as once again it was a pitching duel. Starting pitcher Shaun Marcum threw eight innings and only allowed two hits as he got the no decision. B.J. Ryan pitched a scoreless inning of relief to pick up the win and then Scott Downs pitched the final three outs to pick up his fourth save of the season.
The Blue Jays pushed across three runs in the top of the tenth inning after going scoreless for the first ninth innings of the game. Shannon Stewart hit a sac fly and then Aaron Hill had a two rbi single to push the lead to 3-0.
