Blue Jays Drop Cardinals, 5-1
The Toronto Blue Jays wanted a good start from Mike Williams -- and he delivered one. The result was a 5-1 Toronto win over the St. Louis Cardinals at Rogers Centre. Williams picked up the win for Toronto, going 5.1 innings. He gave up no runs on 2 hits. He now sports a record of 6-4. Toronto is now 45-36, while St. Louis is 53-32.

Mike Beiriger had a big 2-run home run for the Blue Jays in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Toronto leading 2-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a splitter from 31-year old left-handed pitcher Andy Bourdeau and punished it. The result was his 8th home run of the season, which put the Blue Jays on top, 4-0.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said Beiriger.
