shocked that they're trying to pick off a runner at 1st with 2 outs.

I feel asleep in the 3rd, woke up for the 7th inning, and still watched a full game of baseball(and more).

Watched the game up until the 7th when it was 3-1. Had to go play some slo-pitch, get home in time to see the 18th inning and see the W

Cat woke me up at 6:30, neighbor mows lawn at 8. Simple really. Plus I was really really comfortable.

Wow mowing the lawn before 10am and after 10pm should be illegal.

I saw nearly all of it.. I just skipped from 6th to 9th inning doing some yard work.
I came back and the Jays were hitting in the 9th, thinking CRAP a blown save.

#BlueJays option Brad Lincoln to Buffalo after four IP. "That's the crap part of the game," says Gibbons. Move announced tomorrow

John Gibbons says Aaron Loup might have pitched 19th. After that it would have been Andy LaRoche.

Top of the order does its job. Melky draws a walk, Bautista infield single, EE RBI single, Lind 3 run HR. All with two outs. That's what I like to see!

I tuned in yesterday thinking they seem to be turning a corner after noticing they're up 3-1 online. 10 minutes later it's 3-3. TV goes off and yard work begins- they end up pulling it out. Tune in today and they're winning 4-2... 10 minutes later it's 4-4. Turned my TV off again. You can thank me later Jays fans.

Bautista all class as usual.

And they wonder why Lawrie acts like a jackass when the supposed team leader acts like a baby anytime he strikes out.

He gave that out away. Yes the pitch was probably low but so what. It's 0 and 1. Just get on with it. Runners in scoring position.

I didn't like the move to give an out away with the bunt myself.

Jose has been much better this year, and yes he could have handled it better but sometimes tempers get the better of people.

I agree with Sylvanfan, the bunt was dumb. Small ball sucks.

I didn't mind the bunt at all - felt it was actually the right call. You move the tying run into scoring position with 1 out, and your best two bats coming to the plate.

Bautista failed to put together an at bat after the 0-1 strike call, just a brutal plate appearance. One of the worst approaches I have seen him take in a long time.
