At some point, boys has got to get thru Volquez...you don't want this to end up being a bullpen vs bullpen type of ballgame. Entertaining game so far. Incredible D and pitching from both teams and starters.

Bats are quiet, but the approach is sound. Not like in the early part of the last series.

Absolutely. Not because this is KC's home field and they know the spots where to put the ball in play (ie: those damn huge corners in the outfield)

Come on now Cola...you don't want armchair managers to switch their preference because Smoaky can play D. Gotta keep that ball in check.

jays need to get their stuff together here. Hopefully with them trailing they will snap out of it.

All due respect but this is baseball. I have no issue with their approach at the plate. They've hit some balls hard - just haven't found holes.
It's the 3rd. Plenty of time.

I know, just don't like seeing them stranding guys at 2nd with less than 2 outs like last inning.

Got this to say though...KC's a damn dangerous team once they get to that 1st bag. Like I previously mentioned...you like smallball? KC's the team to follow.

Not a fan of the strikezone, balls that are outside away are getting called.

some adjustments where they might look to shoot one the other way might become necessary.

I dare say if the Jays fall behind 0-2 in the series again I don't think they're coming back this time.

Even though they lost the two games, I thought they beat themselves more than Texas beating them. Too amped, looking to be the hero.

Ugh. Is that Volquez, or is that Pedro Martinez in his prime?

What the frig? Pitching the game of his life.

Is it time to drop Tulo to 7th again? He's struggling, big time, right now with the bat.

At this rate, Cliff Pennington may be the better option (joking).

Tulo might be better off in the 9 hole.

3-0
