Detroit’s Justin Verlander comes up just short in his bid for a third career no-hitter, as he has to settle for a one-hit, 5 – 0 shutout after Chris Iannetta leads off the 9th for the Angels with a double that lands on the left field foul line. Verlander retires the final three batters in order to earn only his second win of the year, after missing the start of the season to an injury and suffering from a lack of run support all season. It is the second time he loses a no-hit bid in the 9th inning.

David Price is a winner on his 30th birthday as the Blue Jays defeat the Rangers, 12 – 4 to extend their lead in the AL East to two games. Edwin Encarnacion hits a grand slam in the 6th inning to extend his hitting streak to 21 games, while Justin Smoak and Kevin Pillar also homer. The Rangers don’t help their cause by issuing 11 walks and 3 wild pitches in the game. It is already the 20th time Toronto has scored 10 or more runs in a game this year.
