The Blue Jays fell short again, losing 6-4 to the Red Sox, but this one had heart. Kazuma Okamoto lit it up with a three-run homer (his 23rd of the year — a Japanese rookie record) and a sacrifice fly, while Daulton Varsho finally delivered hard contact with three hits. The offense racked up nine hits and three walks, led by Okamoto, Varsho, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and Nathan Lukes. Despite the loss, the team showed flashes of life — especially with key players stepping up. The pitching, however, stumbled early, with Trey Yesavage surrendering two homers and three earned runs in four innings. The bullpen struggled too, with CJ Van Eyk giving up the go-ahead runs in the eighth. Still, the Jays earned their “Jays of the Day” honors and look to rebound tomorrow against Sonny Gray — with Dylan Cease on the mound in a weirdly scheduled 4 p.m. game.
