Scoreboard Error Costs Blue Jays Run | Toronto News

In a wild bottom-of-the-seventh thriller, chaos erupted when a stadium scoreboard mistakenly showed two outs—throwing off Red Sox runners who bolted for home without tagging up. Umpires scrambled, calling the league office for clarification, delaying play for 20 minutes. The Blue Jays ultimately got the force out at first, but the run from third counted because the batter crossed home before the out was officially recorded. Toronto’s manager lamented the missed appeal opportunity—if they’d thrown to third instead of first, that run wouldn’t have stood. It’s only the second time in two decades this has happened, and though it didn’t decide the game, the Blue Jays still pulled out a 2-1 win.
