Bo Bichette hits two-run homer to lead Toronto Blue Jays over Cleveland 3-0
Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher Adam Cimber reacts after the final out in a victory over the Cleveland Indians at Rogers Centre on Aug. 5, 2021.A two-run blast from Bo Bichette in the fourth and six scoreless innings from starter Ross Stripling kept the good times rolling for the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre on Thursday.
Toronto has its big four starters ready to rumble. Alek Manoah will get the call on Friday, followed by Robbie Ray and newcomer Jose Berrios for Saturday’s doubleheader and Hyun Jin Ryu for the finale on Sunday. But Stripling settled down to retire the next 12 hitters he faced, and an Oscar Mercado groundout gave the Blue Jays righty a no-hitter through 5 1/3 innings.
Stripling stuck out six and allowed three hits in his six innings for his second win in a row. He kicked off the Blue Jays’ strong first week back at the Rogers Centre with a win against the Royals last Friday.
