TL;DR Summary

The Tampa Bay Rays' record-tying 13-game winning streak to start the season came to an end with a 6-3 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. The Rays had been dominant, outscoring their opponents by 68 runs this season, but sloppy defense, imprecise pitching, and an inability to get hits in critical moments cost them the game. Colin Poche, a relief pitcher, walked two batters on nine pitches with the bases loaded, and second baseman Brandon Lowe made an error that cost two more runs. Bo Bichette went 5 for 5 for the Blue Jays, and George Springer hit a leadoff home run against Drew Rasmussen, who became the first Tampa Bay pitcher to lose this season.
