George Springer has already outdone himself this season for the Toronto Blue Jays. He hit 19 home runs in 2024. But now in 2025, he's already up to 20 with a lot of season left to play. Springer homered Tuesday night to reach that 20-homer plateau, and it's an exceptional accomplishment in his career.

He has seen his production at the plate stay stagnant or drop in five consecutive campaigns. His OPS+ in his final year with the Houston Astros before hitting free agency was 141. That exact number was recorded in his first year with the Blue Jays, but it has steadily dropped since that point.

Max Scherzer pitched six strong innings to notch his 220th career win, and George Springer hit an early two-run home run as the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates 7-3 on Tuesday night.
