Jays reliever Tim Mayza gets the hook from manager John Gibbons in a four-run Red Sox eighth at the Rogers Centre. “Some pretty good, athletic, good-hitting guys.” And when it came time to support the bullpen, the defensive execution was abysmal. When you flush a ball like that, you’re hoping for results.” The obvious conclusion after the Jays’ failure to add-on in the fourth was that the Red Sox would tie it up. Happ’s season reflects that of the Jays — a little injured, a little unlucky, a little underachieving. Earlier, Sportsnet reported he was claimed on waivers by an unknown club with the Jays pulling him back.
