Blue Jays' Aaron Sanchez: Earns win over Giants

Sanchez (3-1) held the Giants to just one run on three hits and five walks over seven innings with five strikeouts in Monday's victory.

Analysis:

Sanchez continues to thrive by inducing ground balls, as he induced nine more Monday and has a stellar 59.2 percent grounder rate for the season. He held the Giants 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position and has now stranded more than 80 percent of his runners this season, a major contributor to his 2.58 ERA. Sanchez has allowed just three home runs this year, and as long as he keeps the ball in the yard, he's capable of many more starts like this one.
