Rays 1, Blue Jays 5: Eighth Inning Collapse Was Not Fun

This was a fun game for seven innings. Then things got out of hand in the eighth inning as the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Tampa Bay Rays 5-1.

The story should have and could have been different in tonight’s game.

Ryan Yarbrough came into tonight’s game with a 5-0 record with a 2.42 ERA in 9 appearances at Tropicana Field against the Blue Jays. While Star Wars night was being observed in the stands, the force was not strong with Yarbrough and the Rays on the turf.

Starting in the of the first Yarbrough gave up back-to-back one-out singles to Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
