Many fans took to Twitter to react to the Blue Jay victory. One fan thinks the season is back after this afternoon's win. The team certainly has the talent to go the distance in 2022. Winning a tight game against a potential playoff team gives fans a boost of confidence.
Fans were thrilled with the outcome of today's game because it felt to them like an eternity since the Jays last won. The Blue Jays are just 4-6 in their last 10 games. It's a tough stretch for a team that has playoff aspirations.
Fans are hoping that a winning streak can start for the team.
The Blue Jays' two runs came via a home run. Matt Chapman got things started for the team by blasting his 23rd homer of the season off Guardians pitcher Triston McKenzie.

One fan thinks the two home runs saved the team from another loss. Blue Jays pitching was solid, but outside of the two home runs, the offense struggled.
It was a huge win to snap the losing streak for the Blue Jays.
Fans are happy with the win, but the offense has reason for concern. The team has only scored three runs in the past two games combined.
Overall, it was a nice win for the Toronto Blue Jays as they evened up the series with the Cleveland Guardians. The two teams will face off in the rubbermatch tomorrow afternoon with the first pitch scheduled for 1:37 p.m. EDT. Following tomorrow's matchup, the Blue Jays will face AL East rivals Baltimore Orioles in a three-game series in Toronto.
