Blue Jays miss chance to build momentum with tough loss to Tigers

TORONTO — The last few innings of Monday’s game featured a week’s worth of highs and lows. A no-hit bid from Jose Soriano. A sudden four-run rally from the Detroit Tigers.

And then, in case that wasn’t enough, an uncharacteristically tough outing from Louis Varland, who allowed an RBI single in the eighth before making a crucial error in the ninth. The result was a 6-5 Tigers win that cost the Toronto Blue Jays a chance to gain a game on the Guardians, wh...
