Hale thinks a season is best looked over after each third, so we look back at the first third and forward to what he thinks the team can accomplish over the next couple of months. We also introduce you to Denzel Clarke, a Pickering native who had his coming out party at Rogers Centre on the weekend.

    The Blue Jays’ five-game win streak ended with a thud. They were blown out 8-3 in the opener of a three-game series with the Philadelphia Phillies at the Rogers Centre. Here’s what you need to know:Bowden Francis walked Bryson Stott on four pitches to begin the game, then gave up back-to-back home runs to Trea Turner and Bryce Harper. It didn’t get much better from there, and Stott’s two-run single in his second at-bat of the inning made it 6-0 Phillies before a Blue Jay even picked up a bat.
