Athletics fall to Blue Jays 7-3
The A’s dropped the second game of the series today at the Rogers Center, losing an afternoon game to the Toronto Blue Jays 7-3.
Righty Shintaro Fujinami got the ball to start the game with the hope of a quick 1-2-3 first inning before making way for the bulk pitcher. The Fuji struggles instead continued as Toronto jumped on him right away with a single and double. Both of those runners came around to score and Fujinami didn’t even manage to finish the inning. Left-handed rookie Hogan Harris, who was planning to come in after the first, instead was pressed into the game and got the final out of the inning. Not the best start for the team.
