Barger: 'I was being too aggressive' on game-ending double play

Blue Jays' Dramatic Loss in Game 6 of the World Series

The Toronto Blue Jays lost Game 6 in a dramatic fashion, with a game-ending double play.

Trailing 3-1 in the ninth inning, Addison Barger hit a double that got lodged between the outfield fence and the turf.

"That's such a hard wall, so it's very impressive that the ball stuck in there,"

said Blue Jays outfielder Daulton Varsho.

Barger and Myles Straw came around to score, but were returned to their bases after the umpire signaled a ground-rule double due to the ball being lodged in the fence.

"I was being too aggressive"
, said Addison Barger.

The Blue Jays challenged the play, but the call was upheld, as a fair ball lodged in the outfield wall is considered a ground-rule double.
