Toronto Blue JaysvsBoston Red Sox
TOR 6/BOS 0
Things to say
Toronto shut out Boston 6-0 at Fenway Park.
01
opener
Jays went into Fenway and threw a shutout, 6-0. Bats did enough early and the arms did the rest. Rough getaway day for Boston.
02
key player
Toronto's starter got into his stuff early and the Sox never touched him. That's the kind of outing that settles a whole rotation down.
03
hot take
Getting blanked at home like that isn't a pitching problem for Boston, it's the lineup. The heart of the order went quiet all night.
04
deep cut
Six-nothing and Boston never really threatened. When you can't scratch across a single run at Fenway, that's on the approach, not the bounces.
05
exit
Anyway, Sox need to answer back tomorrow or this series gets away from them fast.
The recap
Toronto walked into Fenway and slammed the door, hanging a 6-0 shutout on Boston to steal a getaway-day win. Whoever got the ball for the Jays clearly got into his stuff early, keeping the heart of the Red Sox order off balance all afternoon and never letting them threaten.
Boston's bats went ice cold with the goose egg, and the bullpen never got a lead to protect. Six runs and a clean sheet on the road is about as tidy as it gets.
