Edwin Jackson pitched scoreless ball into the sixth for his 100th career victory and the Oakland Athletics rediscovered their offence to thump the Toronto Blue Jays 10-1 on Monday night.
Jonathan Lucroy drove in three as the A's used their signature power to clear the fences and get back on track after being swept in a three-game weekend series at Colorado, scoring four total runs at Coors Field following a season-best six-game winning streak.
Mark Canha hit a solo homer in the second to give Jackson the lead on the way to the right-hander's first victory in exactly a month _ since June 30 against Cleveland. Jackson struck out five, gave up three hits and walked three in 5 2/3 innings.
Jays starter Marco Estrada came off the disabled list from a left glute strain and allowed four runs over four innings in his first start since July 3rd.
