The Tampa Bay Rays stopped their 13-game winning streak from the start.
Tampa Bay lost 3-6 in a match against the Toronto Blue Jays in the ‘2023 Major League Baseball’ held at the Rogers Center in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on the 15th (Korean time). Tampa Bay suffered its first loss of the season in 14 games, and the challenge for a new record was destroyed.

It became an acknowledged double as the fan caught the ball that bounced over the fence in right field.
Tampa Bay chased 1-2 thanks to Luke Reilly’s 1 RBI in the beginning of the 4th inning, but collapsed as they gave up 4 runs at the end of the 5th inning. With back-to-back hits by Vichet and Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and a walk by Dolton Basho, the bases were safely loaded. Rasmussen struck out Matt Chapman before being replaced by Colin Fauche, who gave up back-to-back pushback walks to Alejandro Kirk and Santiago Espinal to make it 1-4.
Danny Jansen wanted to step down due to a double hit by the shortstop in the ongoing crisis with the bases loaded,온라인카지노 but second baseman Brandon Lowe made a catch error and allowed 2 runs to make it 1-6.
Tampa Bay chased it to 3-6 with back-to-back home runs by Josh Lowe and Christian Bethancourt in the top of the 7th inning, but could not turn the game around.
