The Toronto Blue Jays will continue their four game series against the Texas Rangers Tuesday.
For the Jays, Hyun-Jin Ryu will take the mound opposite of Max Scherzer in what will undoubtedly be a test for the Toronto bats. It comes a day after the Jays dropped the series opener Monday.
Toronto had a 2-1 lead after two innings, but fell apart late in the game dropping a 10-4 decision. Amid the game, Brandon Belt’s back flared up again and he has since been placed on the 10-day IL.
