TORONTO (AP) — José Berríos and two relievers combined on a two-hitter, Justin Turner had three hits and three RBIs and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Colorado Rockies 5-0 on Sunday for their second shutout victory of the season.
Turner opened the scoring with a two-out single in the first, doubled home a run in the third and added another two-out RBI single in the fifth against Rockies left-hander Kyle Freeland.
Turner is 8 for 10 with six RBIs against left-handed pitching this season.
“He’s special right now,” Berríos said. “What a ball player.”
The Blue Jays won their second straight series after losing the previous two.
Berríos (3-0) allowed two hits, both singles, walked two and struck out seven. He extended his scoreless innings streak to 15 2/3 and lowered his ERA from 1.45 to 1.05.
“We just couldn’t solve him,” Rockies manager Bud Black said.
