TORONTO -- A milestone win for Rick Porcello gave the Boston Red Sox some breathing room atop the American League East.Porcello pitched seven innings to become the first 20-game winner in the majors, Hanley Ramirez hit a three-run homer and the Red Sox increased their AL East lead to two games by routing the Toronto Blue Jays 13-3 on Friday night.Xander Bogaerts homered and Dustin Pedroia had three hits and four RBIs as the Red Sox used 18 hits to rough up the sloppy, slumping Blue Jays in the opener of a pivotal three-game series between the divisions top two teams.Porcello (20-3) allowed two runs and six hits to become Bostons first 20-game winner since Josh Beckett in 2007.Its definitely a huge honor, Porcello said. Its hard to win one game in the big leagues, let alone 20. Im definitely very proud of that.Porcello has worked at least seven innings and held opponents to three earned runs or fewer in nine consecutive starts, the longest streak by a Red Sox pitcher since Pedro Martinez did it in 11 straight in 2000.Just a model of consistency, Red Sox manager John Farrell said. He keeps rolling along and we play with a lot of confidence. His execution has been outstanding. Hes pitching with average velocity, but his location is tremendous.Porcello said he had received a number of congratulatory text messages, but had one he was going to respond to right away.Ive got to call my parents, he said. Thats first and foremost.Porcello came in 6-7 with a 5.27 ERA in 15 career games against Toronto but kept the Blue Jays in check.The Red Sox broke it open by scoring six runs in a 10-batter seventh. Bogaerts hit a leadoff drive off Scott Feldman, his 18th. Three batters later, Ramirez connected off Feldman, his 22nd. Pedroia capped the rally with a two-run single off Ryan Tepera.Boston (79-61) surpassed its win total from a last-place finish in 2015, when it went 78-84.Toronto, which was swept in a three-game series at Yankee Stadium earlier this week, fell to 1-6 in September. The Blue Jays had won six of their previous eight against the Red Sox.We havent necessarily been playing good baseball the last week, but I still believe, Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said.Blue Jays right-hander Marco Estrada (8-8) allowed four runs, three earned, and six hits in 2? innings, his shortest outing of the season. The last time Estrada failed to finish three innings was June 30, 2015, also a home loss to Boston.He was off, no question about it, Gibbons said. He lives on the edges, and he was just missing.Estrada is 3-5 with a 5.32 ERA in nine starts since being named an All-Star for the first time. He missed the All-Star Game after being placed on the disabled list because of a sore back.Nothing went our way today and obviously it started with me, Estrada said.Parka for PapiBlue Jays sluggers Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion presented retiring Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz with a winter parka and a leather jacket before his final series in Toronto. Ortiz has 40 career home runs at Rogers Centre, more than any other road ballpark. Ive seen enough of him, Gibbons joked about Ortiz. The Blue Jays made a donation to Ortizs foundation.StreakingPedroia has at least one hit in 27 consecutive games against Toronto, the longest streak by any Blue Jays opponent.Trainers roomRed Sox: OF Andrew Benintendi (left knee) ran the bases before the game and will try sliding as early as Saturday. A very good day for him, Farrell said. There is still no timetable for Benintendis return. ... Boston recalled LHP Henry Owens from Triple-A Pawtucket.Blue Jays: C Russell Martin (left knee) was held out of the lineup. Martin aggravated the injury in Wednesdays loss at New York and was replaced by a pinch hitter in the ninth. Hes still pretty sore, Gibbons said.Up nextRed Sox: LHP Eduardo Rodriguez (2-6, 4.83) has a 2.73 ERA in nine starts since the All-Star break. Rodriguez is winless in his past five outings.Blue Jays: LHP J.A. Happ (17-4, 3.44) is winless in three starts since his 11-game winning streak ended Aug. 25. Happ won his only start against Boston this season, allowing one run in seven innings.

MOBILE, Ala. -- The San Diego State Aztecs have more on their minds than maintaining the programs highest ranking in nearly four decades.The 19th-ranked Aztecs (3-0) visit South Alabama Saturday night with fresh memories of last seasons overtime loss that snapped a nine-game home winning streak.The score was close, but in reality they completely dominated us, especially up front, San Diego State coach Rocky Long said.That will be hard to do this season. The Aztecs climbed three spots in the rankings during a bye week after debuting in the polls. They havent been ranked this high since finishing the 1977 season ranked No. 16.San Diego States 13-game winning streak is second only to No. 1 Alabamas 16-game stretch.The fast start has been powered by the nations leading rusher, Donnel Pumphrey.Now, the trick will be sustaining it against a team that hasnt hosted a ranked opponent since the programs inception in 2009. South Alabama (2-2) has also already pulled off a road upset over the Southeastern Conferences Mississippi State.Jaguars coach Joey Jones figures Longs team will have double the motivation from last years game and from wanting to hang onto their poll position.They understand this is a big game for them, Jones said. They just got in the top 20, Im sure they dont want to lose that ranking. They will be ready to play for sure.Here are some things to watch in the game:CONTAINING PUMPHREY: Pumphrey has racked up 501 rushing yaards and six touchdowns in his last two games.dddddddddddd He gained 281 yards -- the most of any FBS back this season -- against California and gained 220 against Northern Illinois. South Alabama ranks 117th nationally in stopping the run.STREAK ON THE LINE: San Diego State has seldom been challenged during its winning streak, when only two opponents have come within 14 points.REVENGE GAMES: San Diego State has won its last four games against teams that beat the Aztecs the previous meeting, including a 45-40 win over California. South Alabama won last seasons meeting 34-27 in after Aleem Sunanons tying field goal on the final play of regulation forced overtime.Im sure they have a lot of confidence because theyve beaten us before and beaten us bad, Long said. At least physically they beat us bad.JAGUARS CHALLENGE: Not only has South Alabama never hosted a Top 25 team, but this is only the second Joness young program has faced. The Jaguars lost to No. 23 Mississippi State 30-10 on Sept. 22, 2012.CONFIDENT JAGS: South Alabama doesnt seem to lack confidence after an up-and-down start that includes losses to Georgia Southern and Louisiana-Lafayette and an overtime win over Nicholls State, sealed by a defensive stop on a two-point conversion attempt.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
