How hard will it be to get tickets to a playoff game in Toronto? Would it be easier in Texas? Me and my brother are thinking of catching a game but preferably in Toronto.

They do. In baseball every step is an achievement. I wish hockey was a bit more like this. I feel bad for the Campbell Bowl every year.

That was a very unbiased call of the game. I thought it was very professional.

Give Eddie all the money! What a game guys. Hell ya! Love seeing them celebrate. After the rough September, the bullpen and the big boys showed up at the right time.

I was curious so I actually went back and timed it.
After he says game over as the ball landed, no one said a word for over a minute. A MINUTE!! Could you imagine most self obsessed PBP losers who think they are the broadcast just letting over a minute tick by without speaking?
Yet as a fan I loved it. We got to experience all the elation and celebration with the crowd as it happened. Plenty of time for breakdown and commentary after.

Baseball. For some reason they drench each other in champagne every chance they get. Been like that forever.

Jimenez threw three pitches. Clearly the Blue Jays had some Intel.
Osuna was in the middle of the celebrations so hopefully he's ok.
Great win.
Crédit to Gibby for sticking his neck out with Stroman.
On to the cowardly Rags.

I just looked Ernie Johnson, Ron Darling and Cal Ripken will be doing the Boston-Cleveland series.. boooo
We get Brian Anderson, Dennis Eckersley and Joe Simpson who are good, but not as good.

I'm sure the guys go out and party after a series win, just seems a little odd to have to tarp the room and spray champagne like you're the champs.
Anyway I was just curious, doesn't bother me at all I'm just not used to it. Back to your celebrating!

they do, I think its crazy too...especially when you have a game in a couple days
honestly as exciting as this game was they should have won the division, they really cut it close
entertainment wise though can't complain

Loved the work by Liriano. The Jays have a fighting chance if the bats spark. Their starting pitching goes head to head with the best.

Don't care if he's good colour guy or not. I flipping hate Dennis Eckersley.

For someone who doesn't regularly care about baseball, that game sure sucked me in.

Getting tickets in Texas would be far easier than in Toronto, I'd think. But if I was going to go to Texas given recent history, I would splurge on good seats where fewer rowdies will be.
