Blue Jays fail to turn things around against Orioles Globe_Sports
Toronto Blue Jays centre fielder Randal Grichuk hits a two-run home run against the Baltimore Orioles during seventh inning American League baseball action in Toronto on Monday, April 1, 2019.Sean Reid-Foley needed a strikeout in the biggest way – and it was only the first inning, so you can deduce how the night was unfolding for the young Toronto Blue Jays pitcher.
That wild pitch, along with a home run, two walks and a fielding error, all played a role in Reid-Foley’s half-inning of horrors and helped Baltimore hold on for a 6-5 victory over the Blue Jays on Monday night. Those who showed up got to see an odd occurrence with Baltimore starter David Hess, who was pitching a no-hit masterpiece, getting pulled from the game by Baltimore manager Brandon Hyde with one out in the seventh inning.Hess had thrown 82 pitches, a goodly amount for so early in the season, and had a career-high eight strikeouts. He had just been tagged hard by Brandon Drury but the line drive sailed into the glove of Baltimore shortstop Richie Martin for the initial out.
The game was the first of a three-game set against the Orioles, the worst team in baseball by a country mile last year who are not being counted on to be much better this year. An error by Galvis left Baltimore with runners at second and third and when Reid-Foley walked Renato Nunez, with the bases were loaded.The right-hander lasted only two innings before getting a merciful hook by Toronto manager Charlie Montoyo. His pitching line – of five runs , off four hits, two walks, three strikeouts, two wild pitches and one hit batter – is a bit of a train wreck.
