Blue Jays score eleven and still cannot find a way to win.

For most fans, hearing your  baseball team scored eleven runs is cause for celebration. Not if you're a Blue Jays' fans. The first reaction from a Blue Jays' fan is, "and the other team?" The fanbase has good reason to be like that.

The Blue Jays would hit seven homers in this game, at home in Buffalo. Bo Bichette would also get five hits on the day. The Blue Jays would get eighteen hits altogether, on the teams way to eleven runs. Everything sounds good but then we have to remember the team also has to pitch.

Nate Pearson gave up four earned runs in two and a third innings. Waguespack and dolis would also each give up two runs in a combined three innings. Toronto would go through seven members of their bullpen. The Blue Jays would give up six unearned runs, allowing fourteen runs on fourteen hits.

There was one bright spot for the pitching staff. Wilmer Font came in and didn't give up a run for once. The guy is normally as useful as pitching machine in a batting cage. To quote Bill Belichick, "were on to Thursday".
