    Jon Lester was inducing Toronto's aggressive batters to make outs by getting them to swing at first pitches -- until Macier Izturis came up in the sixth.

    First pitch. Two-out double to left field. End of bid for perfect game and no-hitter.

    But Izturis was the only Blue Jay to reach base as the Boston Red Sox broke a three-game losing streak with a 5-0 win on Friday night.
