WJON Sports


The Toronto Blue Jay slammed the Twins 6-5 at the Metrodome Wednesday night.  Matt Stairs hit a grand slam homerun off Boof Bonser in the first inning before the twins rallied to tie the game at 4.  Toronto scored 2 straight runs and that was enough for the win.  Justin Morneau went 2-4 with a 2-run homerun, Jason Kubel added 2 hits and 2 RBI's and Matt Tolbert was 2-5 with 2 runs scored.  Boof Bonser threw 6 innings with 5 hits and 5 earned runs allowed to take the loss and drop to 2-5.  Roy Halladay threw 6 2/3 innings with 4 earned runs allowed to get the win for Toronto.  The Twins fall to 20-19 and are now in 2nd place in the American League Central just 1/2 game back of Cleveland.  The Twins look to salvage the final game of the 3-game series at home against Toronto today at 12:10, pregame on WJON at 11:40.  Lefthander Glen Perkins (0-1) gets the start on the mound for the Twins and righthander Dustin McGowan (2-3) toes the rubber for the Blue Jays.
