Blue Jays Sweep Mariners, Reach .500 Mark

News summary

The Toronto Blue Jays swept the Seattle Mariners in a three-game series, culminating in a 9-1 victory on Sunday that brought their record to 20-20. George Springer delivered a decisive three-run home run in the final game, and Addison Barger hit his first MLB homer while providing key contributions throughout the series. Toronto's pitching, including strong relief from Eric Lauer, limited the Mariners' offense despite Seattle having previously won nine straight series. The Blue Jays achieved the sweep without regulars Daulton Varsho and Anthony Santander, both sidelined with shoulder injuries. Fan turnout for Toronto was lower than in previous years in Seattle, reportedly due to ongoing cultural and political tensions between the U.S. and Canada. The Blue Jays now prepare to face the Tampa Bay Rays in their next series.
