Tough Pitching Night
The Red Sox faced a tough pitching night as the Blue Jays managed to shut us down, resulting in a 2-0 loss. Despite our best efforts, the bats just couldn't find the spark needed to overcome the Jays' strong performance on the mound.
Early Missed Opportunities
In the top of the 3rd, the Blue Jays got on the board first with an RBI double by Vladimir Guerrero Jr., scoring Brian Serven. Our lineup struggled to respond, with key guys like Jarren Duran and Masataka Yoshida consistently being retired without any hits.Costly Mistakes
In the 4th inning, Jarren Duran got on base due to an error by the Blue Jays, but was caught stealing shortly after. These missed opportunities were crucial in a game where the margin for error was so thin.Brighter Moments
One of the few shining moments at the plate was Nick Sogard's single to left in the 6th inning. We had another chance in the 8th inning when Danny Jansen singled to right, but we couldn't capitalize as Romy González hit into a fielder's choice.Pitching Highlights
Our pitchers did their best to keep us in the game. Nick Crawford had some solid innings before being relieved by Hill and then Weissert, who managed to limit further damage. In total, the pitching staff managed to strike out 5 Blue Jays batters and prevent any further runs after the 6th inning.The Final Push
Despite being hit by a pitch in the 9th inning, Mickey Gasper couldn't spur a late rally. Unfortunately, Tyler O'Neill grounded out to end the game, sealing our fate.This game was a tough pill to swallow, but we'll bounce back!
