The question has been will the Blue Jays pony up the money to pay David Price this offseason. Perhaps they should be asking if Toronto will pony up for Marco Estrada instead.
Toronto needed a strong performance out of Estrada following a disastrous Game 4 and the 32-year old native of Ciudad Obregón, Mexico delivered just what the doctor ordered. Estrada faced the minimum amount of batters through six and two thirds innings and pitched into the eighth inning for the Blue Jays, easing the strain on a battered bullpen.
Chris Colabello provided the only run in the first five innings with a solo home run off Edinson Volquez.
