The Toronto Blue Jays just lost three in a row to the Los Angeles Angels in devastating fashion. The first two games left the Blue Jays scoreless; the last one a five-run loss. This comes at a crucial time for the Blue Jays, as they are currently fighting for a playoff spot in the American League.

The Los Angeles Angels were in the driver's seat the whole game. The Halos got to an early lead in the third inning thanks to a two-run shot by Luis Rengifo. From there, Los Angeles did not look back. The Angels tacked on another in the fourth with a solo shot by catcher Kurt Suzuki. They then put up three more in the seventh thanks to a RBI double by Mike Trout and a two-run homer by Shohei Ohtani. The Angels scored once in the eighth and ninth innings, giving them eight runs on the day. pain ? @16tobeijing@BlueJays 130 thousand people paid to watch this series lmao59@BlueJays 130 thousand people paid to watch this series lmao Brian@nbc_brian@BlueJays Imagine thinking you’re a serious World Series contender getting swept at home by a team that’s 20 games under .500.

Vladimir@VladimirWWE96@BlueJays What a horrible series. God, this team is so streaky and inconsistent. So frustrating to watch.9@BlueJays What a horrible series. God, this team is so streaky and inconsistent. So frustrating to watch. Blue Jays starter Ross Stripling earned his fourth loss of the season after giving up three earned runs through six innings. After being taken out, the Blue Jays bullpen gave up four runs in the final four innings. whit merrifield enthusiast@mitwherrifield@BlueJays jays fans, mental health check?7@BlueJays jays fans, mental health check? The loss put the Blue Jays 8.5 behind the New York Yankees in the American League East. If the Toronto Blue Jays can go on a run, there is no doubt this lead can shrink. The American League East is not out of play for the Toronto Blue Jays Toronto Blue Jays still have time to make a playoff run. As the Yankees continue to slide, this is a perfect opportunity for the Blue Jays to make up some ground in the division. However, Toronto seems to be missing the opportunity and continues to hover 8-10 games behind in the division lead. todd martin@tlmart61@brantjaysfan49 @BlueJays They are not remotely close to a playoff team, no matter what the current standings say… grossly overrated4@brantjaysfan49 @BlueJays They are not remotely close to a playoff team, no matter what the current standings say… grossly overrated Many fans are starting to give up hope on this year's team. Although the Toronto Blue Jays appear to be a playoff team, fans doubt that they will go very far based on their regular season performances. @FLast12345@BlueJays You guys are honesty pathetic and don’t deserve to be in a playoff spot. Getting outscored 22-3 by the Angels of all teams says a lot.343@BlueJays You guys are honesty pathetic and don’t deserve to be in a playoff spot. Getting outscored 22-3 by the Angels of all teams says a lot. Nevertheless, the Toronto Blue Jays have a talented squad, and they just need to find a spark. They must find momentum in these final weeks and take that into this year's postseason. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Edited by Jodi Whisenhunt × Feedback Thank You!
