A fresh-faced Bowden Francis, having shaved off his moustache in an attempt to change his luck, dragged a 6.12 ERA to the mound Saturday in Philadelphia and got off to a great start. The Blue Jays right-hander hadn’t recorded a win since April 18 and had allowed 10 earned runs over just five innings in his last two starts — including one in Toronto against the Phillies in which he gave up six runs in the first inning — but he looked like his old self for a while on Saturday. The 29-year-old Francis retired the side in order in the first inning, then again in the second with the final out of that frame a rare two-pitch strikeout because the batter, J.T. Realmuto, had committed a pitch-clock violation before the first pitch of the at-bat.
