Richards (4-1) allowed two runs on a hit and two walks with one strikeout in 1.1 innings, taking the loss Monday versus Boston.
Richards allowed a two-run home run to Alex Verdugo in the eighth inning, and Toronto was unable to pull even again. This was Richards' first loss in 27 appearances between three teams this year. The right-hander owns a 3.72 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 53:14 K:BB across 38.2 innings, and he's not expected to contend for saves in Toronto's bullpen.
