It's not a great time to be a Toronto Blue Jays fan right now. After all, the Blue Jays got just swept by the Seattle Mariners in the American League Wild-Card round series at Rogers Centre in a fashion that will haunt the team and its fans for a very long time.

The Blue Jays should have won Game 2 Saturday night and forced a Game 3. That was the looming narrative when they went up 8-1 in the fifth inning off a Danny Jansen double. But postseason baseball can be cruel. Unfortunately, the Blue Jays were not able to hold on to that lead as they allowed Seattle to claw its way back until the eventful eighth inning in which the Mariners tied it all up with a three-run double by shortstop J.P. Crawford.

In the ninth inning, the Mariners continued their torrid run, as Cal Raleigh was driven to home plate by an Adam Frazier double that eventually became as the game-winning run.

Of course, Blue Jays and baseball fans, in general, hopped on Twitter immediately to express the shock and misery they are feeling over how the game turned out in such a sharp manner.

The Blue Jays could have prevented a collapse if only they were able to properly field JP Crawford's flyball. In that same play, Bo Bichette and George Springer collided with each other, which also left the latter injured and needing to get carted off the field.

It's going to take some time before the Blue Jays could fully recover from such a gut-wrenching experience in this series at the hands of the Mariners, who now move on to the ALDS.
