TORONTO (AP) — Detroit Tigers right-hander Reese Olson left his start against the Blue Jays after two innings Saturday because of a sore right shoulder.
Olson used double-play grounders to strand runners in each of his two scoreless innings. He allowed one hit and walked two. He threw 30 pitches, 16 strikes.
Right-hander Alex Faedo replaced Olson in the third.
Olson was seeking his fourth straight win. He won back-to-back starts over Cincinnati and Cleveland before the All-Star break and beat the White Sox on June 23. He began the year 0-5 in his first nine starts.
Olson, 24, is in his second big league season, both with the Tigers. He came in 4-8 with a 3.30 ERA in 18 starts.

DUBLIN (AP) — England players Declan Rice and Jack Grealish were targeted by protesting Ireland fans during the UEFA Nations League match on Saturday.
The players previously represented Ireland and were jeered inside Aviva Stadium.
One banner had pictures of Rice and Grealish alongside the words, “The snakes are back.”
Rice opened the scoring for England in the 11th minute but didn't celebrate.
Grealish added a second in the 26th and did celebrate.
Rice made three appearances for Ireland before opting to represent England, where he has become a key figure in the team as one of the best midfielders in Europe.
Grealish played for Ireland at youth level and then chose to pursue a career with England.
Both players were born in England but eligible to represent Ireland.
England interim manager Lee Carsley also represented Ireland as a player when he made 40 appearances for the senior team. He was also born in England.
