The record is still very good but if the Jays want it to stay that way they need to find a way to create more offense. Some bad luck tonight with your 3,4, and 5 hitters all hitting in to double plays on sharply hit balls. But this team shouldnt have to scratch and claw for runs. So maybe they have to force the issue with running around on the bases. Create some holes for these ground balls to go through.

And #### the Yankees. Butter soft schedule and some luck and they rattle off 10 in a row. Gross.

This is just such a missed opportunity. No aces for the Yankees, no Chapman, nobody at the top of their lineup doing anything, and still they can't muster anything significant.

Yeah, just static. Gotta start the runner sometimes and not rely on the batters too much. And they should have pinch run for Kirk in the 7th.

Well hopefully with Manoah going the Jays can even up the series, but with Kikuchi up in game 3 the streak of not losing series' to start the season is now in serious jeopardy.

Tapia with a lead off single and then stranded at first is inexcusable.

I can't believe Kirk made it lol, thought for sure he was done at the plate by a mile.

1-0 Jays.

Kirk's running is hilarious. Short arms going back and forth. Made my day, win or lose.

Only good thing about that HR was seeing that kid who is a Yankees and Judge fan from a Blue Jays fan.

Couldn't tell if the two knew each other or not, but if it was just some random guy that gave the ball away..............that was awesome.

That looked clear as day that Vladdy had his toe on it. Man, it thought that was a no-brainer. Ok.

What the hell Bo, and worse, what about the review? How don't they have a proper overhead for such situations?

Cimber had two strikes then leaves one right over the plate for JD. Ouch. 2-1 Yankees.

At this point we need to ask if the Yankees will lose another game this year. I say no.

Outside of the majority of the pitching this team has been unwatchable.
