Toronto pitcher Barry Zito had a large part in his team beating the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, 4-2. The left-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. In 8 innings, Zito surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 8 and walking 1. He allowed 2 runs. Roberto Batista finished to wrap up his 1st save.

Toronto won the game in part because of Josh Phelps. The first baseman ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Blue Jays ahead, 4-0. For the game, Phelps had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"Nice win for us," said Phelps. "Now we'll go after the next one."

The Toronto winning streak has reached 3 games.
