Despite the loss, Scherzer still delivered seven quality innings and struck out eleven batters. Manager John Schneider added via Keegan Matheson, “The Thumb-O-Meter is good right now,” referencing the injury that cost Scherzer most of the first half. Scherzer also acknowledged that his pitch count reaching 96 was a good sign.

DETROIT -- Toronto Blue Jays catcher Alejandro Kirk was injured after taking a foul ball off his mask in the second inning of Saturday’s game against the Detroit Tigers. Kirk was placed on the seven-day concussion injured list on Sunday.

We can adapt and play through anything that happens.” That will have to the mantra for Tyler Heineman and the Blue Jays over the next week at least, after losing Alejandro Kirk to the 7-day IL prior to Sunday’s 10-4 loss to the Tigers.

In the ninth, Bo Bichette broke a scoreless tie in the eighth inning with a two-run single. The Blue Jays added insurance in the ninth inning with three home runs. Nathan Lukes, George Springer, and Vladimir Guerrero all went deep. It was the 18th of the season for Springer.
