'No column for moral victories': Squandered chances, fateful sixth inning doom Tigers

Toronto — Tigers manager AJ Hinch probably said it best.

"There's no column for moral victories," he said after two long fly balls in the top of the ninth died at the wall and the Blue Jays walked off the Rogers Centre field with a 5-3 win Saturday.

"We've been playing better and these are good teams we're playing," Hinch added. "I like our at-bats right up until the end. But you want to win these games."

Near misses all day long. An unlucky carom and a runner gets thrown out at the plate, cutting short a promising-looking rally.
