Kazuma Okamoto has set a Toronto Blue Jays milestone. He went down on strikes for the 171st time this season on Friday. That exceeds every single-season strikeout total in franchise history. The game came in Toronto versus the Baltimore Orioles on September 11. It was by no means the result he hoped for. Okamoto connected for his 31st home run that evening. Strikeouts are never a good look at the plate. Sportsnet and Yahoo Sports confirmed the mark. The Blue Jays hosted the Orioles that night.
