Morel's late RBI double lifts Cubs over Blue Jays 5-4 as Toronto honours Bautista

TORONTO — A small three-game losing streak has seen Toronto slip out of a wild-card spot in the competitive American League, but the Blue Jays are not overly concerned.

Christopher Morel's late RBI double handed the Chicago Cubs a 5-4 win over Toronto (65-54) on Saturday. Blue Jays starter Chris Bassitt said he won't even look at the standings at this point in the season.

"It never works out if you're scoreboard watching or standings watching. It never works out, ever," said Bassitt, who allowed four runs on four hits, striking out six over six innings.
