Boston leads with an 80-62 record and 20 games left. Let's assume 12-8. That gives them a 92-70 record. For the other teams to get to 92-70 requires the following:

BOS: 12-8
NYY: 14-8
TOR: 15-8
SEA: 16-6
OAK: 16-6

I think it is reasonable to assume that only 2 teams hit 92 wins. Maybe even only 1. But I don't think 90 is enough.

SEA and OAK play each other 7 more times. That's more than half the losses right there. They also play BOS 3 times

Hmm. Was expecting a little bit of an emotional let down after the Yankees series. But spotting the lowly Orioles 3 runs in the first is unexpected.

Yikes. Hopefully, we’ll see an answer back in the second. We should be pounding these guys into the dirt.

2 homers, 2 errors, and a triple in the 1st inning... Did the Jays get hammered last night?

Jesus. What do the Orioles know about Ray that the rest of the league hasn't figured out? They're basically taking batting practice against a potential Cy Young winner.

Lots of hard contact tonight off of Ray. He’s going to need to grind to make it through this one.

Ray seemed to give the “come out and take me on” motion and Hyde shut up.

That was weird. I've never seen an opposing coach go after a player on the field like that. What a tool. Hopefully that sparks the Jays a bit.

I think they woke Ray up

Kind of sad to see how few fans are in the stands in Baltimore. They've always been a tough draw, even when they're winning, but there's probably only ~5000 fans in the stands on a Friday night. Reminds me of the Expos final seasons.

Lamb looks completely lost at the plate. Almost scared.

Yeah that was an awful AB by Lamb. Swung badly at ball one and than watched a hanger right down the middle before popping out. Was hoping he'd clutch up there.
