Jose Bautista singled in the go-ahead run in a four-run seventh inning and the Toronto Blue Jays deepened the misery of the struggling Boston Red Sox with a 7-6 win on Friday night.
The Red Sox dropped to 2-10, matching their poorest start in history and making the worst record in baseball even worse. They did hit two homers after managing just seven in their first 11 games but finished with only five hits.
Brett Cecil (1-1) gave up those homers to Dustin Pedroia and Kevin Youkilis in the third when Boston went ahead 3-0. Toronto tied it on Corey Patterson’s two-run double in the fifth and Travis Snider’s RBI double in the sixth.
Bobby Jenks (0-1) started the seventh for Boston and allowed all four runs, making it 7-3.
