Yeah, the whole thing is stupid. 27 of the 30 MLB teams have a better home record than an away record (and one of the ones that doesnt is the A's which is a weird situation).

And while the Blue Jays have a bigger disparity between home and away wins than most, it isn't an unreasonably big difference, and the Padres, Mets, Rangers and Pirates all have a larger difference between their home/road wins, and the Phillies have the same spread as the Jays. So that isn't even suggestive of cheating, imo.

I think it's mostly statistical noise and things like having your home batting cage equipment. I wouldnt be surprised if the teams with the biggest differences are the ones that most effectively use their home-only Trajekt pitching simulators.

This angle of the grand slam is just fantastic.

It was the noise from the crowd that gave me shivers. Imagine if the roof was closed when he hit it.

Some of them are saying that. And they're saying they won't be able to do it in New York. lol

Cant believe I finally live in a time where a team I support is so good they are being accused of cheating. I used to pray for times like this

It's just sour grapes from Yankee fans who can't admit the Jays are the better team in the ALDS.

They're using Springer as part of the consipiracy too because of what happened in Houston.

These Jays in 30 on Sportsnet are pretty awesome for those of us working the last couple of days and missed two amazing games. Watching Yesavage pitch a gem today was pretty unreal, even in a shortened version.

So jealous of you that made the trip and got to experience these games. Don't get to soak games like these in very often.

I just knew he was going to hit that grand slam...strange feeling I've had like 2 times in my sports watching life where I just knew something huge was about to happen for my team...usually I assume it won't happen.

I had to check the final score and the Vladdy GS this morning to make sure it wasn’t a mirage.

Such a fun game last night. I envy those that saw either game live.
