DETROIT -- R.A. Dickey exited the game, leaving a bases-loaded mess in the sixth inning. Afterward, he could thank reliever Aaron Loup for a remarkable escape. "It doesnt get any better," Dickey said. Loup pitched out of that bases-loaded, nobody-out jam, helping Toronto hold onto to what at that point was a one-run lead. Then the Blue Jays broke the game open late, beating the Detroit Tigers 8-2 Wednesday night. Adam Lind doubled twice to drive in three runs and Melky Cabrera added a homer and three hits for Toronto. The AL East-leading Blue Jays scored three runs in the eighth and two in the ninth in winning for the 18th time in 22 games. "Were picking each other up," said outfielder Jose Bautista, who also had three hits for the Blue Jays. "The day that one guy doesnt come through, then somebody else does. Its what winning teams do, and were enjoying it. Winning baseball is much more fun." Miguel Cabrera and Ian Kinsler homered for Detroit, but Kinsler also left the bases loaded twice. The AL Central-leading Tigers left 11 runners on base in their fourth straight loss. Detroit has dropped 12 of 16. "I still think of it as a funk," Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said. "I still think this team is way better than were playing in the last few weeks." Detroits Rick Porcello (8-3) seemed to be cruising, but he allowed a two-out double to Melky Cabrera in the sixth, followed by a walk to Bautista. Lind then hit a drive over Austin Jacksons head in Comerica Parks cavernous centre field, scoring both runners to put the Blue Jays ahead 3-2. Dickey almost gave the lead right back, allowing a single in between two walks. But with the bases loaded, Loup came on and struck out pinch-hitter J.D. Martinez before getting Rajai Davis and Kinsler on foul popups. "Youre almost thinking, youre bound to give up at least one, possibly two," Loup said. "But you try to limit the damage as much as possible. Tonight was, I guess, one of those lucky nights, you kind of pull a rabbit out of your hat." Dickey (6-4) allowed two runs and seven hits in five-plus innings, walking four and striking out four. Loup pitched two scoreless innings in relief. "I was trying every trick I had," Dickey said. "I was kind of on the tightrope all game, having to use everything in my arsenal, and some days its like that. Thankfully, I minimized the damage in a couple of the innings, and then Loup did that incredible thing in the sixth, and that was really the turning point in the game." Toronto padded its lead in the eighth. Melky Cabrera hit an RBI single and Lind added a run-scoring double in that inning. By the time the game ended, it seemed there were as many Blue Jays fans left at the ballpark as Tigers fans. Bautista added a two-run double in the ninth. Melky Cabrera opened the scoring in the first with a solo shot, but Miguel Cabrera answered in the bottom half with his 11th homer of the year. Kinslers home run in the third put the Tigers ahead 2-1. Tigers shortstop Eugenio Suarez made his major league debut after being called up from the minors before the game. He entered as a substitute in the seventh, and his first plate appearance was eventful. With men on first and second in the eighth, he hit a grounder to third. Brett Lawrie fielded it and stepped on third for a force, but his throw to first hit Suarez around the upper back for an error, leaving runners at second and third. The Tigers left them on base too. NOTES: Detroit also loaded the bases with two out in the fourth, but didnt score when Kinsler flied out to right. ... Bautista made a diving, backhanded catch to retire Torii Hunter in the third on his flyball to right. ... Detroits Justin Verlander (6-4) takes the mound Thursday against Torontos J.A. Happ (4-2) as the Tigers try to avoid a three-game sweep.

TORONTO -- Toronto FC manager Ryan Nelsen was anything but conciliatory Wednesday when informed former Toronto mayor David Miller had returned his season tickets to protest the underachieving MLS club. "I guarantee coming probably in early January, hell wish he had them back," Nelsen said defiantly after a 1-1 tie with the Chicago Fire. "So hes going to look pretty silly, to tell you the truth. "But thats what fans do. They have the right to do whatever they want. But therell be a time pretty soon that whoever decides to do that, I hope they get made to pay double to get (the tickets) back." In referring to January, Nelsen meant the next international transfer window. Toronto (4-13-11) has said it plans to open the vault for two designated player strikers. More than a few fans seemed to be in the Miller camp, judging from the announced season-low crowd of 15,217 at BMO Field for a game played under the threat of a severe thunderstorm. The actual number looked a lot smaller and made for a Canadian Armed Forces Night devoid of energy. Miller made his feelings known in an open letter posted to Facebook. The former mayor, who was involved in helping get the Toronto stadium built, cited the franchises decision to fire president and general manager Kevin Payne and trade newly acquired Argentine striker Maximiliano Urruti, among other beefs. "There once was magic at BMO Field," Miller wrote. "The latest reshuffle has made the possibility of that magic returning almost certainly disappear." Wednesdays tie extended Torontos winless streak to six games (0-3-3). Its last victory was Aug. 4 over New England. Torontos season line reads like this: a win each in March, June, July and August. Toronto did not help itself on offence, with several instances of players selfishly trying shots themselves rather than passing to open teammates. "They were the best chances of the game," lamented a frustrated Nelsen. The home side also needed a game-saving close-range stop from goalie Joe Bendik in the 80th minute on former TFC player Quincy Amarikwa to preserve the tie. For Chicago (10-11-6), the evening represented dropped points in its playoff push. The Fire arrived in seventh spot in the East, just two points out of fifth place and a post-season berth. Chicago came out early and went ahead in the 20th minute on a Dilly Duka goal. The Fire faded, but Toronto could not take advantage. Wednesdays storyline for Toronto was all about an offence that failed to take its chances. The cluub also suffered some more bad luck when Robert Earnshaw injured himself in scoring the tying goal in the 23rd minute on a wet field.dddddddddddd He was forced off the pitch two minutes later with a hamstring problem. The only good news is he considers it minor and its not the hamstring that kept him out for several weeks earlier in the season. With designated player Danny Koevermans only just back in training from the latest in a line of injuries, that leaves Toronto with only three fit strikers for Saturdays game in New York and one of those, newly acquired Bright Dike, has hardly played after undergoing knee surgery in February. Neither team sparkled offensively Wednesday. Chicago outshot Toronto 18-15 but only 4-3 in shots on target. The opening Chicago goal came in the 20th minute via a looping ball from midfielder Duka that skipped just over the foot of a lunging Mike Magee and past Bendik, who was caught in no-mans land because of the oncoming Magee. There were seven Toronto players behind the ball when Duka launched it, notching his fourth of the season. Earnshaw tied it three minutes later after Bobby Convey threaded a cross through three Chicago players to the Welsh striker, who hesitated to make a defender commit before firing the ball past Sean Johnson. It was Earnshaws seventh goal of the season but first since June 15. Earnshaw did not launch his trademark goal somersault celebration, saying later its probably been a decade since an injury prevented him from doing it. Its been that kind of season for Toronto FC. Nelsen, asked if he had done something wrong in a past life given Earnshaw injuring himself while scoring, opted to see a positive. "Its just a build-up of karma thats going to come back in floods," he said with a smile. Toronto substitute Justin Braun twice ignored open teammates on attack. Spanish winger Alvaro Rey also appeared to be blind in one eye on one rush. But Rey showed off his good side in the 45th minute, curling a magnificent shot from distance off the corner of the crossbar. Toronto started defenders Doneil Henry and Ashtone Morgan and midfielder Jonathan Osorio, just days after they played for Canada in a Sunday friendly against Mauritania in Spain. Despite the onerous travel schedule, Henry and Osorio both offered some nice touches. But Henry got a late yellow card, earning a one-game suspension for card accumulation. Toronto FC said close to 500 military were on hand for the game. MLS commissioner Don Garber was also on hand, sitting with Payne.
