What happened: Toronto beat Boston 4-3 to close out the series, having entered the day leading it 2-0. The Blue Jays won all three meetings, holding off the Red Sox in a one-run finale. The result caps a strong road trip against an AL East rival.

Why it matters: The set deepens Boston's troubles at 29-42 on the season while Toronto, at 36-38, keeps pushing back toward .500. Stringing together three straight wins over a division opponent is the kind of run Toronto needs to stay in the race. For Boston, dropping all three at home extends a stretch that has left it well below break-even.

What to watch: Toronto turns to its next series chasing a return to .500, while Boston looks to halt a slide that has it 13 games under after dropping all three at home.
