ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) – Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Marco Estrada is pitching a perfect game through six innings against the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field.

Estrada has struck out seven. He is coming off a start Friday against Baltimore in which he took a no-hitter into the eighth inning.

Tampa Bay’s Jake Elmore flew out to deep center with one out in the sixth after fouling off six straight pitches after the count reached 3-2.

Estrada got defensive help in the fourth inning when shortstop Jose Reyes went into the hole between short and third to field Joey Butler’s grounder and threw him out at first.
