TORONTO (AP) - The Toronto Blue Jays got their old leadoff hitter back Friday night. Their new one kept right on rolling.
Reed Johnson returned from an absence of nearly three months and made a diving catch in the ninth inning, and Vernon Wells homered and drove in three runs to help the Blue Jays beat the Cleveland Indians 8-6 on Friday night.
Roy Halladay improved to 5-0 against Cleveland, and Wells went 2-for-4 with an intentional walk. He's batting .354 (17-for-48) with seven homers and 15 RBIs in 11 games as Toronto's leadoff batter.
