Yeah, using good old small ball to win a game where you get good pitching. The St.Louis Cardinals used to kill teams by doing that in the 80's when Coleman or McGee would walk, steal a base, than they'd get a ground ball and sac fly to get them around. I noticed in the first that after Rios stole third Pettite went into the full wind up. So with a left handed pitcher it does present the oppurtunity. Good on the Jays for recognizing it and taking advantage.
