- Summary -
The Jays lose game 2 despite 9 innings of 1 hit ball from Liriano. Their offense has disapeared so far the last 2 weeks, and they need someone to step up and get them going. Bosech singled home a run in the 1st to make it 1-0, After a Bautista double off the wall, Lawrie scored him in the 6th to make it 1-1. In the 11th with bases loaded, Marshall gave up a 2 run single to Raburn (which should have been caught by Francisco). That was it as the Jays couldnt string any hits together.
