TORONTO (AP) — Three Blue Jays pitchers have combined for six perfect innings against the Boston Red Sox on Thursday night.
Right-hander Louis Varland struck out three of the six batters he faced and lefty Eric Lauer followed by retiring 10 straight.
Right fielder Nathan Lukes made a diving catch on Cedanne Rafaela’s liner to end the fifth.
Yariel Rodriguez relieved Lauer and retired two batters to finish the sixth.
The Blue Jays and Red Sox are tied 0-0. Boston needs a win to clinch an AL playoff berth, and Toronto began the night tied with the New York Yankees atop the AL East.
