Starnes had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the seventh. On a first pitch curveball from Dennis Emmons, he banged a 2-run home run to left-center, giving the Blue Jays a 5-3 lead. It was the 8th home run of the year for Starnes.

Toronto manager Dan Silva was pleased with the team's effort. "Our guys played hard, they played all the way through," he said.
