"RECAP:" -@BlueJays

A disappointing loss for the Toronto Blue Jays. Many fans took to Twitter to react to the tough loss at home. One fan couldn't believe that the team got blown out by a struggling Angels team.

It was not the best showing by the Blue Jays as they are competing for a playoff spot.

Not a good start to the homestand for the Blue Jays.

Others were embarrassed by the performance.

Overall, a tough loss at home for the Blue Jays to a struggling Angels team that has lost six straight games. The Blue Jays will look to bounce back in Game 2 tomorrow.
