TORONTO -- When they arent piling up double-digit run totals, the Boston Red Sox cant seem to score much at all.J.A. Happ got his 18th win, Melvin Upton Jr. hit a two-run homer and the Toronto Blue Jays snapped a four-game losing streak by beating Boston 3-2 on Saturday, closing within one game of the AL East leader.Boston dropped to 5-3 on a nine-game trip. The Red Sox have scored three runs combined in the three defeats.Happ (18-4) allowed two runs and four hits in six-plus innings to win for the first time since Aug. 17 at the New York Yankees, ending a three-start winless streak. He didnt allow a hit until Chris Youngs one-out single to center in the fifth.Many, many times weve shown the ability to put up a quality offensive game, Red Sox manager John Farrell said. He shut us down today.Dustin Pedroia homered leading off the sixth and has a 28-game hitting streak against the Blue Jays.Hes tough, Pedroia said of Happ. His fastball gets on you, he locates real well, hes got late movement on his offspeed stuff. It just wasnt our day.The lack of offense proved costly to Red Sox left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez, who allowed three runs -- two earned -- and four hits in six innings. Rodriguez (2-7) is winless in nine starts but has allowed more than three earned runs just once in that stretch.He more than did his job against that lineup to give us an opportunity to win, Farrell said. Offensively, we just couldnt get anything going.Toronto, whose players met behind closed doors for about an hour before the game, avoided matching its longest skid this season.It was a big win, no doubt, Happ said. We had better energy than weve had in a while today. From first pitch to last it seemed like our dugout was really into this one.Upton and Devon Travis both made costly errors in Fridays 13-3 loss but followed with good days at the plate Saturday. Travis had three hits for the Blue Jays and is 6 for 9 in the first two games of the series. Upton hit his 20th homer, a two-run drive in the second.Two guys who took a lot of heat last night came through for us, manager John Gibbons said.Upton has 25 stolen bases and reached the 20-20 mark for the fourth time.Jose Bautista made it 3-0 in the third with an RBI bloop single just beyond the reach of shortstop Xander Bogaerts.Happ left after back-to-back singles by Hanley Ramirez and Aaron Hill put runners at the corners in the seventh. Joaquin Benoit gave up a sacrifice fly to Jackie Bradley Jr., then struck out pinch-hitter Travis Shaw.Jason Grilli pitched the eighth, and Roberto Osuna finished for his 31st save in 34 chances, striking out Bradley with a man on for the final out.WHAT A RELIEFBoston relievers have not allowed an earned run over 14 2/3 innings in September.TRAINERS ROOMRed Sox: OF Andrew Benintendi (left knee) is to try sliding in a simulated game Tuesday at Fenway Park, Farrell said. It is expected to be Benintendis final test before coming off the DL.Blue Jays: Martin returned after leaving Wednesdays game and sitting out Friday with a sore left knee. Martin leaped into the Red Sox dugout in search of a foul popup in the fifth, nearly colliding with Farrell. I couldnt believe he jumped, to be honest with you, Farrell said.UP NEXTRHP Clay Buchholz (6-10) starts Sundays series finale for Boston and RHP Aaron Sanchez (13-2) for Toronto. Buchholz is 2-0 with a 2.31 ERA in his past four starts. Sanchez allowed two home runs Tuesday in a 7-6 loss at the Yankees, matching the total in his previous 10 outings.Tyson Chandler Lakers Jersey . On Mar. 16, coming off a "fight of the year" performance at UFC 154 the previous November, St-Pierre faced Nick Diaz at UFC 158 in what would be his eighth defence of the welterweight title. Using his superior athleticism, St-Pierre cruised to a five round, unanimous decision victory setting up a much-anticipated title defence against number one contender Johny Hendricks. Rajon Rondo Jersey . The Dane followed up his first European Tour title last weekend with eight birdies and just a single dropped shot on Thursday for a one-stroke advantage over South Africas Allan Versfeld and Portugals Ricardo Santos. http://www.lakersbasketballshop.com/Wilt-Chamberlain-Jersey/ . In the lead up - which seemed to begin the moment Mike Geiger blew the whistle in Houston last Thursday night - the Impact rumour mill went into overdrive. The speculation went into meltdown mode, of the golden nugget variety. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Lakers Jersey .Y. -- Leading 3-0 with only 11:25 left, the Colorado Avalanche committed a seemingly meaningless penalty to give the New York Islanders a power play. Shaquille ONeal Jersey .ca NHL Power Rankings for the second straight week, ahead of the Pittsburgh Penguins and Colorado Avalanche.Guus Hiddink says he is unsure of his future plans after saying a difficult goodbye to Chelsea.The Dutchman was brought in midway through the season with Chelsea 16th in the Premier League, only one point above the relegation zone.During his second spell with the club, Hiddink led Chelsea away from the bottom three and secured a 10th-place finish. He will be replaced by Antonio Conte in the summer after bidding farewell following Chelseas 1-1 draw with Leicester.Asked what he plans to do next, he told Sky Sports: I dont know. I will have some holidays. Then the Premier League starts again, I will not directly be involved but I will follow it closely.Its always difficult to say goodbye, I have been here twice and I have enjoyed it, although it was difficult to get the team from the relegation zone to where we are now. Its not enough for Chelsea standards but to say goodbye is difficult for a club I love. John Terry insisted he wants to stay at Chelsea and paid tribute to Hiddink after the draw I shouldnt be here normally because that means they are fighting for the top four or better, but I enjoyed helping out and I wont be away for long in the future, I will come to visit.dddddddddddd.Hiddink previously took charge in 2009, stepping into the role in February after the sacking of Luiz Felipe Scolari.He was unable to finish his second spell with a win as Danny Drinkwaters long-range strike cancelled out Cesc Fabregas penalty.It was a typical end-of-season game, said Hiddink. In the first half we managed to create some chances and then after the break we got the penalty but then invited them to get their equaliser and it was sloppy defensively.It was a diplomatic 1-1 draw between the current and the past champions.Also See:Chelsea 1-1 LeicesterAs it happenedGet a £10 free bet!
