Jays Beat Mariners 6-3
Briefly

The Toronto Blue Jays won their second consecutive game, led by strong defensive efforts and a standout performance from Addison Barger, who hit three doubles. Kevin Gausman had a challenging night on the mound, aided by his teammates' defensive plays that prevented run-scoring hits. While the offense got off to a great start, it struggled to maintain the lead as the Mariners began to stage a comeback. Ultimately, the Jays managed to secure the win with crucial insurance runs in the ninth inning and solid pitching.
Kevin Gausman had a few balls find holes, but he also benefited from some excellent defensive play behind him, particularly from Addison Barger and Daulton Varsho, each of whom made huge run saving catches.
Barger was the exception, with three doubles on the night. The last one was hit at 116.5mph, putting him 8th in the league for max exit velocity this season (Vlad remains first).
The offence started hot but struggled to build on the lead as the Mariners clawed their way closer.
The pitching and D were enough to stave the Mariners off.
