Nate Pearson faces four hitters and the only one he retired hit a sacrifice fly 393 feet to centre field, missing a grand slam by less than a yard. Tim Mayza takes over with 2on and 2out in bot7, #Bluejays lead 4-2.

#Bluejays back to their old tricks in top2 - first and second with nobody out and the 3/4 hitters coming up. They don't score as Vladdy and Turner both hit double-play balls, Turner's is turned. 4-0 #Jays to bot2.

Nationals showing real commitment to getting the Blue Jays going offensively

Blue Jays: •3.47 runs/game, 28th in MLB •68 wRC+ runners in scoring pos'n, 30th •110 wRC+ bases empty, 6th •96 wRC+ overall, 18th So you have a lineup that's performed very poorly, esp when it counts most. Rest of season, you'd expect/project better. Question is, how much?
