TORONTO — The playoff waiting game continued for the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday afternoon after they dropped a 7-5 decision to the Tampa Bay Rays.
Taylor Walls hit a two-run single off Jordan Hicks in the 10th inning to silence the sellout crowd of 42,097 at Rogers Centre. Tampa Bay added another run on Junior Caminero's infield single.
The Blue Jays will get another win-and-you're-in opportunity against the Rays in the regular-season finale and other results Sunday could also fall Toronto's way. The Rays, meanwhile, are in playoff tune-up mode after securing the first of three American League wild-card spots earlier in the week.Chances are still good these teams will meet next week at Tropicana Field. The Rangers, Mariners and Houston Astros were still in the mix for AL playoff spots entering play later Saturday.
Ryu wasn't particularly sharp over his three-inning appearance but he managed to avoid giving up a big frame.Varsho answered in the bottom half with a no-doubt solo shot. His 20th homer of the season landed in the 200 level just inside the right-field foul screen.Trevor Richards gave up a two-run homer to Ramirez in the fifth that tied the game.
