The first leg of the Blue Jays' doubleheader against the Orioles on Tuesday did not go in their favor, as they were thrashed 16–4 by their division rivals. Things got so bad for Toronto that they turned to a position player to take over on the mound, deploying catcher Ali Sanchez as a relief pitcher late in the game.
Sanchez got through his lone inning on the mound in just 18 pitches, though he did surrender a pair of runs. Still, he managed to record a jaw-dropping strikeout against Alex Jackson on a hilariously slow eephus pitch that clocked in at just 35 mph.
