<p>DETROIT (AP) — Jack Flaherty pitched six scoreless innings, Gleyer Torres hit a three-run homer and the Detroit Tigers ended a six-game losing streak with a 10-4 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday.</p>
<p>Detroit had lost 12 of its past 13 games. Toronto fell to 8-2 since the All-Star break.</p>
<p>Flaherty (6-10) allowed a double and four singles. He struck out seven and walked one to end a seven-start winless streak.</p>
<p>Max Scherzer (1-1), pitching on his 41st birthday, fell to 2-3 in five career starts against his former team. He allowed three hits in seven innings, including Torres' homer, and struck out 11 without issuing a walk.</p>
<p>Dillon Dingler started the third with a single and took third on a Parker Meadows double. Scherzer retired the next two batters, but Torres hit a high fastball into the right-field stands for a three-run homer.</p>
<p>The Tigers put the game away with seven runs in the eighth inning, including six with two out.</p>
<p>Toronto scored four runs in the ninth off reliever Luke Jackson, who was making his Tigers debut.</p>
<p>Bo Bichette had five of Toronto's 10 hits, extending his on-base streak to 19 games.</p>
<p>Key moment</p>
<p>The Blue Jays had runners on the corners with two out in the seventh. Brenan Hanifee relieved Tyler Holton and threw a slider over the middle of the plate. The ball left George Springer's bat at 108 mph, but Parker Meadows made a simple catch of the line drive in center field.</p>
<p>Key stat</p>
<p>The loss prevented Toronto from sweeping a four-game series from the Tigers for the first time in franchise history.</p>
<p>Up next</p>
<p>The Blue Jays travel to Baltimore for a four-game series against the Orioles. RHP Chris Bassitt (11-4, 3.88) is scheduled to start Monday's opener.</p>
<p>Detroit remains home for a three-game series with the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Tigers face former teammate LHP Eduardo Rodriguez (3-6, 5.50) on Monday night.</p>
