Down 2-0 with two outs in the bottom of the sixth inning, Toronto, which had been held in check by Kansas City rookie Cole Reagans, who was named Pitcher of the Month for August, had a chance.
Reagans, who had just snapped a 26-inning scoreless streak, gave up back-to-back singles with a wobbly delivery, then slipped and fell while throwing a wild pitch that sailed over the catcher’s head, putting runners on second and third.
Reagans signaled to the coaching staff that he was OK, but on the very next pitch, he allowed a run on another wild pitch that the catcher couldn’t catch.카지노사이트
Then the next pitch was a bad step, leading to three straight wild pitches,
that tied the game, and Toronto then pounded the opposing bullpen for a 5-2 victory.
Riding a three-game winning streak, Toronto maintained its hold on the second American League wild card and increased its chances of making the postseason.
