TORONTO -- Frank Thomas's two-run double with two outs in the seventh snapped a tie and sparked Toronto to a 6-3 victory over the Boston Red Sox last night on opening night for the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre.

Thomas's hit, off Manny Delcarmen, broke a 3-3 deadlock. The Jays added another run off Delcarmen on a two-out single by David Eckstein in the eighth.

Boston starter Tim Wakefield cruised through the first five innings but surrendered three runs in the sixth. J.D. Drew took him off the hook with a three-run homer off Toronto starter Shaun Marcum in the seventh.
