The Toronto Blue Jays lost 2-13 to the Kansas City Royals in an MLB regular-season game on Wednesday night. The visitors took control early and never looked back, finishing with eleven runs of margin. It was a stark contrast to their meeting just a day earlier, when Toronto won 3-0 at the same venue.
The Royals' bats were active throughout. They scored in bursts rather than building a steady accumulation, which is how these blowouts usually go. By then, the contest was already decided, but they kept going for the jugular anyway.
Toronto's recent form had been inconsistent. They beat Kansas City on Monday, lost to them on Tuesday, then lost again on Wednesday.
Their streak against the Yankees was mixed too — a win, a loss, and another loss in their last three games. To be fair, the pitching staff had some tough matchups on their hands.
Kansas City came into the series after a tough stretch against the Tigers. They lost one game 11-7, won two others 3-1 and 5-2. This win puts them back on a good run after that uneven performance.
The final score tells you everything. Eleven runs in one game is not something you see every week. The gap between the teams was clear from start to finish.
