Jays waste workmanlike Manoah start in failure to sweep O’s
The brooms were put away in this series finale as the Blue Jays were unable to complete the comeback and sweep away the Orioles by tennis match-like scores of 6-3, 6-3, 6-5*.
The first inning saw him walk his fellow 2019 first-day draftees Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson, sandwiched by a leaping catch at the wall by Teoscar Hernandez, robbing Anthony Santander of a double. That was one of the few loud outs this game for Manoah. The Orioles answered straight away with Mateo driving in Terrin Valvra with a slicing double towards the line, barely fair. But, Danny Jansen answered as well, homering in the 4th inning to make it 2-1 Toronto. Manoah cruised through the last two innings without giving up a hit. After stranding three runners in the fifth and sixth, the Blue Jays extended their lead on a Guerrero homer that scraped into the Jays’ left field bullpen.
Rutschman then singled home the two pinch hitters to left-centre to put them in front 4-3. After a hard-struck double play by Santander, John Schneider called for an intentional walk to rookie Henderson to bring up Aguilar. Aguilar hit a liner to right-field, but right fielder Jackie Bradley Jr. was able to nab Gunnar Henderson at third base, but not before Mullins scored to give Baltimore a two-run lead. The takeaway was that every thing hit off of Romano today was drilled.
