The Jays let down the fans as the Jays lose the rubber match to the A's

Brad Mills faced A's and in the third inning it took him facing the seventh batter in the inning before he could recorded the first out of the inning as he gave up a two run double to Cliff Pennington, a RBI single to Hideki Matsui which was his first hit of the series, Conor Jackson had a two run triple, and it ended with the Blue Jay's 50th wild pitch on the season that scored Conor Jackson to make it 6-0.

After the Jays put up two runs in the fourth inning including Adam Lind picking up a RBI and reaching base on an error on Cliff Pennington and an Edwin Encaracion had a RBI single and then in the sixth Luis Perez had to wait til the fifth batter to finally record the first out of the inning including a Hideki Matsui RBI single and Conor Jackson had a sac fly. The worst part of the inning was with two outs and Ryan Sweeney hit a ball that did not reach the mound and Perez picked it up and he should of just eaten the ball because Sweeney was already at first but Perez turned and wildly to first and it went down the first baseline and the 10th run scored.

J.P. hit his 19th homer a solo shot in the eighth to make the final 10-3 and a sleepy day @ the Rogers Centre and it would be better if Arron Hill did not strike out to end the fourth inning and leaving two runners on and J.P. homer which would tied the game @ 6. Shawn Camp pitched 2 innings of shutout pitching performance while Brad Mills pitched 3 inning and gave up 6 runs, 5 hits, 2 walks, and also struck out 5 batters and it looks like it is only an one inning blow up as he also had a blow up inning in Baltimore as well.

The Jays had 68,000 fans in attendance in the series
