TORONTO -- Aaron Sanchez wasnt feeling too good for his start against Kansas City. It was hard to tell from the way he pitched.Sanchez overcame flu-like symptoms to work eight innings and win his eighth straight decision, Josh Donaldson and Darwin Barney each hit two-run singles in a four-run seventh and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Kansas City Royals 6-2 on Monday night.Troy Tulowitzki had two hits, his third multi-hit game in the past four, as the Blue Jays won a rematch of last years ALCS, which Kansas City won in six games.Sanchez (9-1) has not lost since April 22, against Oakland. He allowed one run and three hits and matched the longest start of his career.Its just starting to come together for him, Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. I think hes going to get even better and better.Sanchez also gave up one run in eight innings at Colorado in his previous start.He threw the ball extremely well, Royals manager Ned Yost said. Good downhill action on a 95 mile per hour fastball, good curveball. He just threw a great game.Sanchez retired the first seven batters he faced and held the Royals hitless until Cheslor Cuthberts two-out single to center in the fifth. The next hitter, Alcides Escobar, grounded out.Thats the name of the game, trying to get these guys back into the dugout as fast as I can, Sanchez said. When you can do that you kind of keep a flow of things.Michael Saunders gave the Blue Jays a 1-0 lead with an RBI groundout off Edinson Volquez in the first.Toronto nearly doubled its lead in the fourth but Alex Gordon threw out Edwin Encarnacion trying to score from second on Kevin Pillars two-out single to left.When (Gordon) first got that ball I thought hes got no shot at throwing (Encarnacion) out, Yost said. All of a sudden, boom, here we go. He came up firing. It was a fantastic throw.Kansas City tied it when Kendrys Morales homered off Sanchez to begin the seventh, his 15th. Morales has hit five home runs in his past five games.Volquez (7-8) left after the first three batters reached to load the bases in the bottom half. Luke Hochevar came on and walked Devon Travis to bring in the go ahead run. Barney followed with a two-run single.That was the whole game, Volquez said. I got myself in trouble in that inning.Volquez allowed four runs and four hits in six-plus innings. He is winless in three starts, allowing 15 earned runs in 13 2/3 innings.After Ezequiel Carrera advanced the runners with a sacrifice bunt, Donaldson lined a two-run single to right, making it 6-1.Eric Hosmer hit a two-out homer off Brett Cecil in the ninth, his 13th.EARLY RETURNSThe Blue Jays have scored in the first inning in each of their past three games.TOUGH TIME WITH TORONTOVolquez is 0-5 with a 6.38 ERA in seven career starts against the Blue Jays.END OF THE LINEDonaldson had reached safely in nine straight plate appearances before grounding out in the third.TRAINERS ROOMRoyals: RHP Yordano Ventura has a Grade 1 sprain of his right ankle but hopes to make his next start, Friday against Seattle, Yost said. Ventura left Sundays start after he was injured running the bases.Blue Jays: RHP Marco Estrada received multiple cortisone injections in his sore lower back and expects to make his next start, Thursday against Detroit.UP NEXTRoyals: RHP Chris Young (2-7, 6.24) is 0-5 with a 8.53 ERA in six road starts. Young is winless on the road since a victory at Chicago on July 17, 2015.Blue Jays: RHP R.A. Dickey (5-9, 4.21) is 0-6 with a 5.14 ERA in eight home starts.

Mercifully this kind of thing… Appears to have finally come to an end.No longer do we have to endure Kevin Pietersens party lifestyle. Hurray!Now we have to endure his wholesome lifestyle. Whatever hes doing, hes doing it to a greater extent than you are. Thats probably what were meant to conclude from all of this.Just wait until he discovers lounging around watching TV. The sofa will cave under his relentless presence. The empty pizza boxes will tower above him…He hasnt even been banging on about coffee. Weve had to head to the Test Match Special commentary box for our obligatory coffee tweet. When not working on TMS, James Taylor has been having an even more productive time than KP. He has been providing valuable information too actually. A lesson for all wannabe birds/aeroplanes: lemons make a perfectly serviceable alternative to wings… apparently. We may have misunderstood that.Taylors former team-mate Graeme Swann has been putting his time to good use too. And hes got even greater ambitions for the future. If he wass eating one meal a day, drinking juice and training like a mofo, he wouldnt even need to grow that much.ddddddddddddHashim Amla has been asking the difficult questions. Some questions are best left unasked. They dont want you to know the answer to that, Hashim. They dont want anyone to know the truth about wet outfield roping…Umar Akmals Twitter feed remains pretty much as youd expect. Coming soon to a town near you: one man and his ever-present photographer. Theres an outside chance he took this one himself. Dont give us the #brightsunnyday excuse, Umar. We know you wear sunglasses every day of your life, indoors and outdoors, rain or shine. We know this because weve seen the photographic evidence.When it comes to selfies, everyone else at least limits themselves to transport. What is it with cricketers? As soon as theyre in motion, they have this irresistible urge to photograph themselves. ' ' '
