Morales homers, Blue Jays bullpen holds off Brewers 4-3
MILWAUKEE — The Toronto Blue Jays bullpen slammed the door on the Milwaukee Brewers to preserve a 4-3 victory Tuesday night.
Four relievers combined to shutout the Brewers over the final 4 2/3 innings after Milwaukee chased starter Joe Biagini with three runs in the fifth inning.
The Blue Jays had jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the top of the frame on Kendrys Morales’ two-run homer.
“They pulled it close and you’re not even through the fifth yet,” Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said of the need to go to his bullpen early.
