btw why is a Canadian team wearing U.S. military stuff this weekend? I get it's Memorial Day weekend in America, but this is.........not America.

If this team could actually hit a baseball they would be unstoppable. The starting pitching is there, the relief pitching is there (for the most part), the bats continue to struggle. But its a big W!

No kidding. I am kind of in shock with the Jays bats.

If they were a top 5 offense like pretty much everyone in baseball expected, they'd be right up there with the Yankees.

At least the rotation looks like it's rounding into unbelievable form. Ryu turning back into good Ryu would be amazing.

I think the caps are honoring Armed Forces Day which is this weekend in the US (Memorial Day is the week after Victoria Day in Canada). But the Jays should wear their camo caps (especially if they're playing at home) on the first weekend of June when Canada's Armed Forces Day is.

Lucky break there

2nd and 3rd 0 outs I thought the Jays were in trouble.

EDIT: But of course Votto sticks it up our asses.

It really sucks that being down 1-0 feels like an insurmountable hole for this garbage offense to dig out of.

Springer WHY?????

I hope he's safe. Just a terrible mistake if he's out.

A Jay being throw out on the base paths ! So surprised

And Springer wasn’t running out of the box or he’s safe easy -but this is typical for the team - Montoya does not hold them responsible for the fundamentals

Yay Bo !
