Blue Jays secure win over Red Sox amid controversial ruling
Summary

The Toronto Blue Jays topped the Boston Red Sox 2-1 on August 10 at Rogers Centre.

Jameson Taillon pitched four scoreless innings before exiting due to forearm pain, while Simeon Woods Richardson earned the win despite conceding an earned run. Charles McAdoo and Andrés Giménez contributed to the offense with key hits. Louis Varland recorded his 25th save in a tense ninth inning.
