The Blue Jays players called for a team meeting after their 6-3 loss to the Rays on Thursday night as Tampa Bay took three of four from Toronto.
One AL East rival of the Yankees keeps cruising, while another is reeling and looking for answers.
Zach Eflin, a 29-year-old right-hander, held the Blue Jays to one run and six hits in seven innings, and the Rays stole seven bases for the second time this season and improved to 24-5 at home.Toronto — which went 92-70 last season — is 8-15 in May.They trail the Rays by 10¹/₂ and the teams do not meet again until six games during the final 10 days of the season.“We’re punched right in the face the last 10 days or so,” Blue Jays manager John Schneider said.
They loaded the bases with one out in the ninth against Jake Diekman, Colin Poche entered and walked Bo Bichette on four pitches and gave up a sacrifice fly to pinch-hitter Ernie Clement. Poche got his first save this season when Vladimir Guerrero Jr. grounded into a game-ending forceout. “We have to communicate with each other, help try and make each other better because we are a team. We want to win, and if we want to win a division or play in the playoffs, it’s up to us to find ways to get us back on track. It’s up to nobody else but us.”
