| Blue Jays Beat Cardinals |
ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Carlos Villanueva worked six solid innings backed by Juan Rivera's three-run homer, the only hit in a five-run third, and the Toronto Blue Jays' beat the sagging St. Louis Cardinals 6-3 on Saturday night.
Jaime Garcia (6-3) kept his home ERA at a minuscule 0.88 because four of the runs in Toronto's big inning were unearned due to third baseman Daniel Descalso's two-out throwing error. But the left-hander gave up Rivera's sixth homer the next at-bat and walked three in the inning, including Jose Bautista intentionally to load the bases.
Garcia had four strikeouts and four walks, one off his season high, in seven innings. (Copyright 2011 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.) |
