Seattle, WA (Sports Network) - Brandon Morrow reminded the Mariners why they made him in the fifth overall selection in the 2006 draft.

Unfortunately for Seattle fans, Morrow (9-7) was pitching against the home team, fanning 12 in six innings of one-run ball to lead Toronto to a 5-1 win.

Adam Lind hit a three-run homer, while Edwin Encarnacion and Colby Rasmus added solo blasts for the Blue Jays, who have won four of five overall.

Blake Beavan (3-4) surrendered all three longballs in a five-inning start for Seattle, which had won three straight before dropping the final two meetings of this three-game set.
