Pirates Drop Seventh in a Row on Sunday, As Blue Jays Sweep the Series

The Pittsburgh Pirates lost 10-1 on Sunday afternoon to the Toronto Blue Jays in front of a crowd of 21,655 fans, who waited through a long rain delay to see the team’s seventh straight loss.

The 1:35 PM start time turned into a 3:10 PM game. The Blue Jays were just waiting to get things started, putting up an early run in the first, though it could have been worse.

Starter Roansy Contreras got Danny Jansen to strike out swinging with the bases loaded to end the inning. Toronto loaded the bases on a Bo Bichette single, Daulton Varsho double and a Brandon Belt walk.
