Sanchez, Carrera open up two-game lead on wild card with win over Orioles
TORONTO — If Tuesday night was Aaron Sanchez’s last start of the regular season, he’ll be happy with the way his first full year in Toronto’s starting rotation played out.
But he won’t be satisfied. Not yet, anyway.
Sanchez threw six solid innings of one-run ball while striking out 10 to help lead the Blue Jays to a 5-1 victory over the Baltimore Orioles in a matchup between American League wild-card holders.
“There’s areas that went kind of north or south through the course of the year but for the most part everything kind of worked out well for me,” Sanchez said. “It’s a good accomplishment and whatever, but there’s still games left and hopefully more playoff games for me to pitch in too.”
