Russell Martin delivered the go-ahead hit for the second straight day, a leadoff home run in the 11th inning Saturday that sent the Toronto Blue Jays to their 10th straight win, 5-4 over the Red Sox in Boston.

Martin drove a 2-0 pitch from Matt Barnes (2-2) deep into the left-center-field stands for his 10th homer of the season.

Brett Cecil pitched a perfect 11th for his fourth save, preserving a win for Aaron Loup (2-3).

NATIONALS 7, BREWERS 2 Yunel Escobar and Wilson Ramos hit two-run homers, and Bryce Harper continued his offensive surge by driving in two runs as Washington won at Milwaukee.
