Donaldson, Stroman power Blue Jays past NY

TORONTO -- Josh Donaldson and Troy Tulowitzki each homered while Marcus Stroman tossed eight innings in the Blue Jays' 4-2 victory over the Yankees on Thursday night at Rogers Centre.

Toronto was struggling to generate any kind of offence against Yankees right-hander Nathan Eovaldi until Donaldson came through with a deep three-run shot to straightaway centre field in the fifth inning. One inning later, Tulowitzki added a solo shot as the Blue Jays took a two-run lead and didn't look back.

Stroman picked up his second victory in three starts despite a rough fourth inning that saw him allow a pair of runs on 34 pitches.
