There will be many tough losses on the road to a championship. Trying to win each series is what is important from here on out.

Great at bat by Tulo there. Really didn't think it would end in a K.

Bet the good guys win tomorrow.

You win this battle JBR, but the war is still in our sights.

should be interesting to see how they respond, in recent years they have had massive winning streaks followed by losing skids hopefully things are different this time.

People have been talking like they have the division wrapped up, long way to go

I can't believe they sent price out to start the 8th. He might have had a shutout going through 7 but he didn't have his A stuff tonight.

Really?

I thought it was a brilliant battle but Miller was tremendous as he stayed with his strength. It was obvious that Tulo couldn't hit that pitch and Miller just kept feeding him more of them until he whiffed on one.

Great game though and as always in baseball, there is another game today to wipe out the bad taste from yesterday.

Jays are still constructed brilliantly from top to bottom and should be fine going forward.

I still like the Jays chances against a team whose gone 4-6 in their last ten, but this is exciting baseball.

Just a heads up, MLB at Bat (premium and regular) are on sale today and tomorrow. $25usd for Premium for the rest of the year (it's usually $25 per month). Premium allows playing game through Apple and Android apps, while regular is just via the Web.

Rogers (shocking) dropped the blackout restrictions last year, so no blacking out of Jays games in their home market (Canada) . Playoff games may be ok too without blackout.

Good deal if you've cut the cable TV cord, or are on vacation somewhere without Snet in the next month and a half.

Jays bats are cold - need Estrada to keep them in it

And Tanaka throws junk - probably the worst Yankee pitcher they could face at the moment

Bautista is just not a good fielder - as much as Buck and Pat try to tell us otherwise.

The ball has been carrying to right all week, there's nobody on and one out - how about playing a bit deeper Jose?

Waiting for all the Jays bats to wake up. Small outpourings of offense this week. They need to be more consistent.
