Alek Manoah throws a beauty for the Blue Jays


Alek Manoah retired 22 of his final 23 hitters in an impressive eight-inning performance, and the Toronto Blue Jays wrapped up a successful series in Baltimore with a 4-1 victory over the Orioles on Wednesday night.

The Blue Jays won three of four to take a 4 1/2-game lead on Baltimore for the last wild card in the American League. Manoah (14-7) allowed a run in the first, but the Orioles didn't manage another baserunner until the sixth.
