Bowden Francis Attempts to Extend Hot Streak as Blue Jays-Phillies Series Concludes

Blue Jays Riding High on Francis' Recent Success

Entering the final game of their series against the Philadelphia Phillies, Bowden Francis has positioned himself as a potential x-factor for the Toronto Blue Jays. With a 3.41 ERA and 20 strikeouts in his last 25.2 innings pitched, Francis has emerged as a reliable arm for the Blue Jays' rotation.

Francis Aims to Continue Dominance

Francis will start the series finale against the Phillies, hoping to extend his streak of strong performances. In his last outing against the Chicago Cubs, Francis allowed just one earned run and struck out eight batters over 6.0 innings of work. If he can replicate that type of performance against the Phillies, the Blue Jays will be in a strong position to secure a series victory.

Here are some of Francis' key statistics from his recent hot streak:

3.41 ERA
20 strikeouts in 25.2 innings
Allowed one earned run in his last outing

The Blue Jays have been one of the most surprising teams in baseball this season, and Francis has played a key role in their success. If he can continue to pitch well, the Blue Jays will be a tough team to beat down the stretch.
