Blue Jays lose opener to Orioles, Bichette to knee injury as trade deadline looms

Losing to the top team in the division — one you're chasing — is never a good time, but potentially losing a star player just hours before the trade deadline could be an even tougher pill to swallow.

With the Blue Jays already struggling to the tune of a 4-0 deficit to the AL East-leading Baltimore Orioles, star shortstop Bo Bichette pulled up after rounding first base before being assisted off the field and leaving the game with what appeared to be a leg injury.

Bad news for the Blue Jays. All-Star Bo Bichette pulls up with an obvious injury rounding first base and is taken out of the game.
