Fresh off a series win in The Bronx, the team headed south to Philadelphia for a pair of inter-league games with the Phillies. Hyun-Jin Ryu got the start in the opener, with two solid-but-unspectacular starts in his SimJays career to that point.
The tie didn’t last long, though, as J.T. Realmuto doubled to lead off the bottom of the sixth and was immediately tripled home by Bryce Harper. It was the first of Harper’s two triples on the night, both of which came as a result of Derek Fisher’s limited range in right field and poor throwing arm .
The finale in Philadelphia started out as another great pitchers’ duel, this one between off-season free agent acquisitions Tanner Roark and Zack Wheeler, and it ended up a heartbreaker. Cue the heartbreak. With the big lead, Jacob Waguespack came in from the bullpen. He left four batters later with the lead having been cut in half thanks to home runs by Rhys Hoskins and Bruce around a Realmuto single. Sam Gaviglio got out of the inning and handed things to Anthony Bass for the eighth.
Still 2-1 Blue Jays going to the eighth, Anthony Bass got the ball again, because after you get knocked off the horse, you get right back up on it. Unfortunately, the horse bucked again, as Bass gave up a leadoff homer to Hunter Dozier to tie the game. It stayed tied for a while, as after Bass left, Gaviglio, Giles and Wilmer Font combined to retire 16 K.C.

Blues prospect Scott Perunovich wins 2020 Hobey Baker Award - Sportsnet.caSt. Louis Blues defence prospect Scott Perunovich has won the 2020 Hobey Baker Award as the top player in college hockey. Great, just GREAT. Most Hobey Baker winners become flops. VAST majority. Cale Makar is SUCH an anomaly. I have Perunovich in my Fantasy keeper pool (8 guys, 100 players per team). Might as well cut him now....
