Ryu gives up five and the Jays fall 6- 4

After a strong performance by the pitching staff on Wednesday, before giving up four runs in the tenth due to lack of offense; the Blue Jays looked for redemption on Thursday.

It wasn't a good outing for Toronto's new ace. Ryu failed again to pitch a minimum five full innings, pitching 4 and 1/3 innings. Ryu gave up five runs on nine hits and one base on balls. On the bright side however, he did strike out five batters.

Gourriel Jr and Hernández had the bats working for the Jays, each having three hits with Hernández driving in two runs. Bichette and Biggio would also drive in a run. 

Unfortunately, Font would come in and give up three hits and a run on on 1/3 innings pitched and the Blue Jays, couldn't muster any more offense. Team hero, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. would wind up going 0 for 4 at the plate.

The Blue Jays now fall to 3 - 4 on the season, with 53 games remaining. Due to covid the team will have four days off and will probably join the Nationals for a joint team workout on Sunday, as the stadiums in Buffalo and Rochester are still not ready. This all could have been avoided if only Canada's government worked out a way for the Jays play home.
