Blue Jays' season on life support after losing two on Sunday.

On Sunday,  the Toronto Blue Jays would compete their game from Saturday and play another game against the Devil Rays. Toronto would not fair so well.

In the first game, The Jays Bats would be cold but the pitching staff would attempt to make up for it. The Jays would lose 3-2.

In game two, the Jays would take an early lead scoring 2 runs in the first. Shoemaker would not make it passed 4 innings. Allowing 3 earned runs on three in the fourth. Shoemaker would pitch 4 complete innings striking out seven, while giving up three hits and a walk. 

The Jays would reclaim the lead in the bottom of the fourth scoring 3 more runs. The Jays Waguepack and Font would each come in for relief and surrender a run. The Blue Jays would also surrender an unearned run to lose the game 7 to 5. 

Toronto could only muster 9 hits and a base on ball in game two. The team that is built to put Balls in the stands is also built to give up runs. I don't know if this is to keep things exciting but the Jays have to make a change in how the team is built. If the team is going to be built on long ball, they have to pay up and get some aces and quality relief pitchers.

Toronto falls to 7 - 11 on the season and will can pretty much kiss the season good bye unless the team goes on long win streak and gets help. Some how this is Canada's fault for not letting the team play at home.

Speaking of 7 11, in football news Chris Hogan has signed with the New York Jets. Since the Blue Jays season is just about all but over, might as well share some news that might effect the Patriots. A team that knows how to consistently win.
