The Blue Jays finally snapped their 7 game losing streak last night with a 9-4 win over the Red Sox but still managed to embarrass themselves.
In the 2nd inning, O'Neil hit an easy pop fly that Vladimir Guerrero decided to backpedal for, into the outfield and ended tripping right before he caught it.
Well, this just about sums it up.
Vladimir Guerrero Jr., backpedaling the entire way, drops this pop fly that George Springer could have easily had.
The runner races around to third with a triple and scores soon after. #BlueJays

This play was a perfect summary of how the Blue Jays season has been going so far.
Despite most fans blaming Guerrero for the incident, George Springer spoke to reporters after the game taking blame for what happened saying he should have called him off.
Credit to George Springer, who went out of his way to take ownership of this one and say he «kind of let Vladdy down there.»
«I should know better. The ball tends to drift here to right field. That's completely on me. I should have called him off and I didn't.» #BlueJays

Regardless of who is to blame, it was an awful look for the Jays as an easy out turned into a triple. Thankfully, the Blue Jays were still able to walk away with the win finally snapping their losing streak.
