Nomar Mazara hit a home run in the eighth and the Jays could not answer as Toronto fell to the Texas Rangers 2-1.
TORONTO – The matter of greatest import for the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday night was not whether the Texas Rangers would throw at Jose Bautista in some petulant attempt at avenging the right-fielder’s epic bat flip from Game 5 of the American League Division Series last fall. Sam Dyson had the chance to deliver any potential message personally in the eighth inning, settling instead for a loud lineout to right field. The playground narrative was never going to happen in a game of consequence between adults.
