Daulton Varsho, Alejandro Kirk, and Anthony Santander each had moments, but the clutch hit was elusive. Meanwhile, our boys on the mound kept us in the game with some impressive displays. The Rangers fought hard, but our defense kept them silent for the majority of the innings.Heartbreak in the 8th Inning

Things started to unravel when Sam Haggerty started the offensive with an impactful steal. After a series of unfortunate mishaps, including a pickoff error, the Rangers capitalized on the opportunity, scoring twice. Despite our best efforts in the 9th inning, including attempts from Vladimir Guerrero Jr., the Blue Jays fell short. The final score: 2-0 to the Rangers.
Let's hope for a brighter outcome next game, Jays' fans!
