      TORONTO  - Max Scherzer won his sixth consecutive decision,
Victor Martinez hit a two-run homer and the Detroit Tigers beat the
Toronto Blue Jays 10-5 on Monday night.
      Scherzer (6-0) has not lost in eight starts this season. His
season-opening winning streak is the longest by a Tigers pitcher
since Jeremy Bonderman won eight straight in 2007.
      Scherzer allowed two runs and five hits in five innings,
matching his shortest start of the year. He walked three and struck
out five.
      Martinez went 3 for 4 with three RBIs and Austin Jackson had
four RBIs for the Tigers, who have won six of seven to even their
record at 18-18.
      Toronto lost for the seventh time in nine games and dropped a
season-high five games below .500.
