Cubs rout Blue Jays 16-2; Vladimir Guerrero Jr. exits with injury

sportsJun 19, 202616457

The Chicago Cubs routed the Toronto Blue Jays 16-2 in Chicago, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. exited the game with an injury. Carson Kelly hit a grand slam and drove in six runs as the Cubs amassed 18 hits and drew 11 walks. Toronto even turned to position player Myles Straw to pitch late, and the rout plus Guerrero's injury raises immediate concerns for the Blue Jays' lineup and pitching depth.

My god, he's done it. A Vladimir Guerrero Jr. home run, 410 feet over the Green Monster. His fourth of the season. #BlueJays

Damnit, I was so excited about day baseball and then I completely forgot about it and missed this!

Good but let’s wait and see if just by chance he get things going. Where he goes the Jays are likely to follow.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has hit a homer. This is not a drill.

Myles Straw becomes the first-ever Blue Jays player to wear #3 on the mound.

Any momentum #BlueJays left Boston with following their three game sweep of the Red Sox dissipated somewhere between Boston & Chicago.

Things you learn when your team is down 16-2… ABS challenges aren’t allowed when position players are pitching. Interesting. #BlueJays

The Toronto Blue Jays plan to activate right-hander pitcher Lazaro Estrada in the coming hours, per sources. Estrada, 27, threw 12.1 innings on a rehab assignment with Triple-A Buffalo, recording 13 strikeouts.
