Schneider didn't lose the game, the bullpen lost the game. The players have to execute and do their jobs.
Mayza caused a 4 run inning. And then Bass got no one out. Romano actually pitched very well in the 8th, but that blooper was perfectly placed. A few feet deeper, Springer gets it. A few feet shorter, Bichette gets to it. A little higher pop up, Springer gets under it. Perfectly placed - and with 2 outs, all the runners are moving. If there was only one out, they would have all had to wait to see if it was caught, and they wouldn't have scored 3 runs.
Only way to describe it: Toronto curse.
