The Blue Jays' Alejandro Kirk showcased remarkable skill with his first major league triple, bringing hope to a struggling team. Despite this highlight, Toronto lost 3-2 to the Tampa Bay Rays, marking their 82nd defeat this season and guaranteeing a losing record for the first time since 2019.
The loss left the Blue Jays in last place in the American League East, as missed opportunities piled up during the game. Although Kirk's triple extended his hit streak to 14 games, it wasn't enough to alter the team's disappointing trajectory.
