TORONTO – Edgar Renteria hit a two-run home run, Kenny Rogers won for the first time since July and the Detroit Tigers beat the Blue Jays 8-4 on Friday night, handing Toronto its sixth consecutive home defeat.

The Blue Jays have not won at home since April 6, when they completed a three-game sweep of Boston. It’s Toronto’s longest home losing streak since an eight-game skid from April 5-17, 2004.

Renteria, who singled home a run in the ninth, finished 2-for-4 with three RBIs.
