Game Updates
The Toronto Blue Jays unleashed a relentless offensive barrage at Coors Field on Monday night, demolishing the Colorado Rockies 15-1 in a game that was over before it began. Nathan Lukes (3-for-4, 3 runs, 3 RBI) and Bo Bichette (3-for-6, 6 RBI, 2 homers) led the charge as Toronto pounded out 22 hits, with seven players recording multi-hit performances. The Blue Jays batted around in the third inning, erupting for seven runs off starter Tanner Gordon—who lasted just 2.2 innings while surrendering 11 hits. Even role players like Ernie Clement (5-for-6) and Daulton Varsho (2-for-5, 4 RBI) joined the hit parade, turning the game into a batting practice session.
Eric Lauer (6 IP, 1 ER, 97 pitches) cruised through Colorado’s lineup, allowing just one run on seven hits while striking out four. The Rockies’ bullpen offered no relief, with Carson Palmquist yielding five runs in 1.1 innings as Toronto’s lead ballooned. For the Blue Jays, the blowout provides momentum in their playoff push, while the Rockies—now losers of three straight—face more questions about their struggling pitching staff as they limp toward September.
