Blue Jays survive 9th, win 6-5 in 10th to sweep Red Sox

BOSTON (AP) — Blue Jays closer Jordan Romano pitched his way out of a bases-loaded, no-out jam in the ninth inning at Fenway Park.

Then he had to shut the Red Sox down one more time.

“I kind of tried to erase what happened the last inning, because it was a lot of adrenaline,” he said after leading Toronto to a 6-5 win over Boston in 10 innings on Thursday night. “You had to stay focused. We've got three more hitters coming up and like, let’s win a game.”

One night after earning a save in an extra-inning victory over Boston, Romano (5-3) picked up the win to seal Toronto's three-game sweep.
