For such a winning player, longtime New York Yankees rival George Springer certainly came off as ... a pretty sore, defeatist loser on Tuesday.
Springer and the Blue Jays, objectively, got ripped off in a crucial situation against the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday evening. Yankees fans have split and scrambled rooting interests in this series, but as long as the AL East is alive — and the deficit's now down to two, including the tiebreakers – it's hard not to get a little excited as Toronto skids.
Tuesday's crucial Jays loss turned in a blink in the bottom of the second, when Springer rocketed a ball down the left-field line with the bases loaded, only for it to be called foul as it (almost definitely) shot over the bag fair.
