Blue Jays Ride 10-Game Win Streak into the Record Books—And They’re Just Getting Started

The Toronto Blue Jays are surging, and not just in the standings. With their 10th straight victory—a rain-shortened 6-1 win over the Chicago White Sox—the team is one game away from matching a franchise-best 11-game winning streak for the fourth time in club history. For associate manager DeMarlo Hale, who’s been around for several of these runs, this one stands out for its intentional, all-in approach.

This latest streak has been defined by clutch situational play, strong starting pitching, and a next-man-up mentality throughout the lineup. Chris Bassitt pitched a savvy six-inning complete game on Tuesday, giving the exhausted bullpen a rare breather. Offensively, it was a textbook display of opportunistic baseball, highlighted by Davis Schneider’s solo homer and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s multi-hit night.

More impressive than the results, though, has been the team’s chemistry and clarity. Manager John Schneider’s improved communication—players now know their roles and lineups before even arriving at the stadium—has fostered trust and buy-in. From platoon players like Nathan Lukes and Ernie Clement to key reinforcements like Eric Lauer, everyone understands the assignment: contribute, adapt, and stay ready.

“It’s about this game,” said Hale. “Do something to help the team win.” That message, repeated consistently, is finally clicking—and it’s turning into wins.

The Blue Jays have a shot at sweeping the White Sox and tying the team’s all-time win streak on Wednesday. Whether it’s pitching depth, hustle on the base paths, or timely hitting, this is a team playing with purpose—and that’s a streak worth remembering.
