Boyd optioned following struggles vs. Boston

The seven earned runs without recording an out are tied for the third most by a starter in Major League history. It also marked the first time in franchise history Toronto surrendered seven runs in the first inning before recording an out.

"The good news is that I get to put on a uniform tomorrow," Boyd said. "Baseball doesn't define who I am. It's my living, it's the game I play and I have another day. I'm grateful for another day to go out there, bounce back and go win tomorrow."

Boyd began his outing by allowing three consecutive singles.
