Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Dustin McGowan gave up four runs over six innings and the Blue Jays offense wasn’t able to pick him up as the Jays lost to the A’s by the score of 4-2. McGowan didn’t pitch that bad as he gave up six hits and only walked one while striking out five. In the end though he dropped to 6-7 on the season.
After McGowan left the game, Brandon League pitched the final two innings and gave up two hits but no runs. League did a good job of keeping the A’s at only four runs and giving the offense a chance to come back.
The offense however struggled all night long as they were only able to put to runs on the scoreboard. Both of the run came in the fifth inning when Adam Lind hit a two run home run. The Jays struck out six times and left 14 runners on base in the game.
The Blue Jays will now be off on Thursday and then start up a weekend series with the Los Angeles Angels.
