Tolle Pitches Eight-Inning Gem, Durbin Hits Grand Slam as Red Sox Beat Blue Jays 7-0

  • The Boston Red Sox signed 28-year-old right-handed pitcher Morgan McSweeney to a minor-league contract during their series against the Toronto Blue Jays, adding organizational pitching depth.
  • Relief pitcher Garrett Whitlock was placed on the 15-day injured list due to "a little bit of elbow inflammation," forcing Boston to seek immediate reinforcements for its bullpen.
  • Thursday's 7-0 victory at Rogers Centre saw rookie Payton Tolle pitch eight scoreless innings while Caleb Durbin hit a grand slam to power the comeback.
  • The victory ended a five-game losing streak for the 64-56 Red Sox, who maintain a strong position for an American League wild-card playoff spot.
  • Across six seasons of affiliated ball, McSweeney has posted a 3.61 ERA with 234 strikeouts in 239+ innings, providing Boston with a proven organizational arm.
