Middlesbrough moved up to 16th in the Championship as they consigned Blackpool to a third consecutive league defeat with a comfortable win at Bloomfield Road.
Isaiah Jones gave the visitors the lead after he turned in from Marcus Forss' cross following some good work from Chuba Akpom in the build-up.
Boro were awarded a penalty shortly after the break and Forss fired in from the spot after he was brought down by Blackpool keeper Chris Maxwell.
Akpom tapped in for Boro's third as the visitors took control, with Blackpool offering little in the way of a response.
