The sun continues to shine brightly upon streaking Blue Jays

A's at Jays - Wednesday, August 12, 2015, 7:07 pm

Felt sure that with Aaron Loup coming in on long rest the Oaklands would score at least one in the 9th.

Top-9 - with Josh Phegley (PH) in scoring position, Mark Canha (3 for 3 at the time) flies out to deep right-centre, which as good as seals the glorious revolution. Aaron Loup strikes out Eric Sogard and it's done.

It's the Jays' 10th win in a row - and with another NYY loss - day one of 1st place in the AL East; the fact announced to the cheering faithful at the dome about 10 minutes after this 3-10 Blue Jays victory.

The sun continues to shine brightly upon the Toronto Blue Jays.
