Well, that didn’t go very well.

“As soon as I hit it, I knew it was going to leave the ballpark”, said Beltran, who choked up on the bat, figuring Sanchez would attempt to blow another fastball past him. “Anything I can do to help this team win, that’s what I try to do”.

Talk about a reversal. The defeat dropped them 1 1/2 games back in the American League East.

Injured Blue Jays right-hander Marcus Stroman, who is taking summer courses at Duke University, posted a photo on Twitter to show he was watching the game despite being in class. Stroman had the game on his phone, which he hid behind his laptop screen.

Prior to all the changes, the Blue Jays were treading water around the break-even mark while leading the American League in run differential, having outscored their opposition by 94 runs over the first 101 games while sitting at 50-51. And yet getting swept this weekend...
