Jose Bautista Ties Unceremonious Blue Jays Single-Season Record

Toronto Blue Jays right fielder Jose Bautista went 0-for-4 during Tuesday's affair against the Kansas City Royals, striking out twice.

Not only was it a poor showing at the dish, but Bautista's two strikeouts gave him 159 for the season. That season total ties the veteran with Jose Canseco (1998) and Kelly Johnson (2012) for the most in a single season in team history, per Sportsnet Stats.

However, Bautista and the Blue Jays have 11 games remaining on the schedule, meaning he will inevitably take sole possession of the top spot if he continues playing on a daily basis.
