Bo Bichette drove in two runs as the visiting Toronto Blue Jays defeated the St. Louis Cardinals 5-2 Wednesday afternoon to complete a three-game sweep.
Ernie Clement went 3-for-4 with a homer and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. went 2-for-5 with a run and an RBI for the Blue Jays, who won for the 12th time in 14 games.
Blue Jays starter Eric Lauer allowed two runs on four hits with a walk and four strikeouts over 4 1/3 innings.
Braydon Fisher retired two batters, Spencer Turnbull (1-0) worked two scoreless innings, Brendon Little handled the eighth and Yariel Rodriguez closed out the ninth for his first career save.
Yohel Pozo hit a homer for the Cardinals, who have lost four straight games.
Cardinals starter Matthew Liberatore (3-6) allowed three earned runs on eight hits while walking one batter over five innings. He struck out four.
The Cardinals took a 1-0 lead in the first inning on Masyn Winn's single, Lauer's errant pick-off attempt and Willson Contreras' single.
Pozo's second-inning homer doubled the St. Louis lead to 2-0.
The Blue Jays tied the game 2-2 in the third inning. Tyler Heineman reached on a two-base error, Bichette hit an RBI single, Alejandro Kirk singled and George Springer hit a sacrifice fly.
Toronto moved ahead 4-2 in the fourth inning. Myles Straw singled, Jonatan Clase walked, and they moved up on a bunt. That set up Bichette's sacrifice fly and Guerrero's RBI single.
Clement's homer made it 5-2 in the fifth.
Contreras hit a leadoff double in the sixth inning, but Turnbull retired the next three batters.
Kirk and Springer hit singles to open the seventh inning, but a double-play grounder and failed steal attempt ended the Toronto threat.
With two outs in the eighth, Alec Burleson walked and Nolan Arenado hit a single before Little struck out Nolan Gorman.
