Nate Pearson was recalled from the Blue Jays’ triple-A affiliate in Buffalo, N.Y., in a corresponding move.

Romano’s 28 saves this season are tied with Cleveland’s Emmanuel Clase and Baltimore’s Felix Bautista for most in the American League.

San Francisco’s Camilo Doval and Cincinnati’s Alexis Diaz lead the National League with 31 saves each.
