Urías Homers, Blue Jays Beat Nationals 3-2 in Scherzer's Return to Washington
- On Monday, the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Washington Nationals 3-2, marking Max Scherzer's return to Nationals Park on his 42nd birthday. The three-time Cy Young Award winner made his 100th career start there, receiving a standing ovation.
- Scherzer, who spent about 6 seasons with the Nationals and helped win the 2019 World Series, threw 75 pitches over 2 2/3 innings, allowing one run on four hits. He departed after striking out Daylen Lile to end a 12-pitch at-bat.
- Luis Urias homered in the third to tie the game, while Myles Straw added two hits including a run-scoring single. Toronto's offense overcame an early 1-0 deficit created by Luis Garcia's RBI double, building a 3-1 lead.
- Andres Chaparro homered in the fifth to pull Washington within 3-2, but Toronto's bullpen held firm. Louis Varland pitched the ninth for his 22nd save, striking out Luis Garcia Jr. to secure the victory.
- Toronto RHP Shane Bieber opposes RHP Cade Cavalli in Tuesday's middle game of the series. The Blue Jays aim to build momentum after losing seven of 10 games since the All-Star break.
