Jackie Bradley Jr. had four hits and four R.B.I., David Ortiz had two doubles, and the Red Sox outslugged the American League East-leading Toronto Blue Jays, 11-4, on Monday in Boston. It was Toronto’s fourth loss in 16 games.
Josh Donaldson and Justin Smoak each hit solo homers for the Jays, whose lead over the Yankees was sliced to a half-game. Donaldson’s homer was his 37th of the season.
Working on seven days’ rest after complaining of fatigue, Toronto’s Mark Buehrle (14-7) gave up five runs on nine hits in three and a third innings.
