Toronto Wins 6-1 to Continue Red Hot Start
It was a fun time at SkyDome, where the Montreal Expos and Toronto Blue Jays tangled.

The Toronto Blue Jays went home winners at SkyDome, thanks in large part to starter Hipolito Pichardo. Pichardo silenced the Montreal Expos, enabling Toronto to grab the 6-1 win. The Blue Jays, now 9-2, have been on a roll in the early going.

Derek Jeter had a big bases-clearing double for the Blue Jays in the bottom of the second inning. With Toronto leading 3-0 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from Mark Guthrie and stroked the double to left-center. It was his 3rd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Blue Jays ahead, 6-0.

Pichardo called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."
