Cease Shines, Jays Find Their Offence in Crushing Mariners 8-1

On Friday, the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Seattle Mariners 8-1 at Rogers Centre, with pitcher Dylan Cease striking out eight over six innings to anchor the victory.
After Dominic Canzone's 433-foot first-inning homer gave Seattle an early lead, Toronto's offense responded with three runs against Emerson Hancock while Cease retired nine consecutive batters.
George Springer led Toronto with four hits, including his 14th home run in the fifth inning off Hancock; Kazuma Okamoto added his 27th homer in the sixth.
Mariners manager Dan Wilson announced Friday that right-hander Bryce Miller will move to the bullpen on a 'short-term basis' to make adjustments and get back on track.
RHP José Soriano is scheduled to start for Toronto on Saturday against Mariners LHP Kade Anderson , continuing the three-game weekend series.
