Baseball: Toronto 3 Texas 2

Edwin Encarnacion hit a two-run homer in the first inning Friday and six Toronto Blue Jays pitchers made the lead stand up in a 3-2 victory over Texas. Both sides were limited to four hits and the Rangers failed to take advantage of a potentially game-changing Toronto fielding error in the seventh. The Blue Jays snapped a three-game losing streak. Encarnacion\'s 31st homer of the season came off Yu Darvish (12-9), who took the loss despite giving up just three hits and striking out 10 over seven innings. A single by Rajai Davis in the fifth accounted for the third Toronto run. Trailing 3-1 heading into the seventh, the Rangers loaded the bases with two out and they scored a run when second baseman Omar Vizquel committed a fielding error on a grounder from Mike Olt. That brought up leadoff man Ian Kinsler, but he left the bases loaded by hitting a fielder\'s choice grounder to shortstop. J.A. Happ (9-10) surrendered only one earned run on two hits over six innings and a parade of five members of the Toronto bullpen then gave up two more hits the rest of the way. Casey Janssen worked a perfect ninth for his 16th save.
