<p><a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/news/instant-reaction-toronto-blue-jays-defeat-white-sox-8-4-push-winning-streak-nine">On Monday</a>, the <a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/">Toronto Blue Jays</a> extended their winning streak to nine games.</p>
<p></p>
<p>It&#8217;s their largest win streak in a decade, <a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/news/its-starting-feel-like-2015-for-toronto-blue-jays">as the 2015 Blue Jays</a> won 11 consecutive games, turning their season around and eventually going to the American League Championship Series. With a win on Tuesday against the Chicago White Sox, they can get to within one game of matching the winning streak.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>All three of the Blue Jays outfielders, Joey Loperfido, Nathan Lukes, and Addison Barger, went deep for the Blue Jays, going from a 1-1 game to a 5-1 game. Lukes has played three games in the lead-off spot in the last four, and he has six hits (two doubles, one home run) in 16 plate appearances. Loperfido has three hits since returning.</p>
<p>Barger won&#8217;t be in the outfield tonight, as he returns to the infield to play third base. He&#8217;s now slashing .269/.328/.515 with 12 home runs in 248 plate appearances for a 132 wRC+, he&#8217;s arguably been the <a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/news/the-rise-of-addison-barger-will-go-a-long-way-for-the-blue-jays-this-season">biggest reason for them being in first place</a>.</p>
<p>Lukes leads off, followed by George Springer and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Bo Bichette remains batting clean-up, followed by Barger and Alejandro Kirk. The Jays&#8217; bottom third is comprised of Loperfido, Ernie Clement, and Davis Schneider. Quite a well-rounded lineup.</p>
<p>Chris Bassitt makes the start for the Blue Jays. Last time out, he pitched five and two-thirds innings while allowing three earned runs. He was the last starter in the Jays&#8217; last loss, going just two innings while giving up nine runs, eight of which were earned, on June 28.</p>
