The 2026 season

Month by month, the streaks, and the record in the games that are argued about.

They finished 5th in the AL East, 19 games back. They spent 5 of 185 days in first place and were as far as 20 games back on September 26. Their best month was August at 17-11, their worst June at 11-15. The longest runs were a 4-game winning streak from May 20 to May 23 and a 6-game losing streak from April 1 to April 7. They were 42-39 at home and 37-44 on the road, 20-24 in one-run games and 38-46 against clubs that finished .500 or better. The most lopsided win was 14-1 against the Angels on May 9; the heaviest defeat, 16-2 at the Cubs on June 19.

Record by month. March games count toward April, October’s toward September.

Announced gate — tickets distributed, which is the figure every reference publishes and is not the same as people through the turnstile. A game the feed reports no gate for is left out rather than counted as empty. Seasons before attendance was carried into the lake are absent from the trend rather than shown as zero.

Regulation games only, in minutes. 161 minutes this season.

Elapsed time from first pitch to final out. The feed does not itemise delays, so a rain delay is inside these numbers with no way to subtract it. Games called early are excluded — five innings in ninety-three minutes is not a short game — but they still count in attendance, because the crowd turned up.

Record versus run differential

Toronto Blue Jays are 79-83, a .488 win rate, while their -46 run differential implies .469. That is essentially in line — the record reflects the run scoring.
