Dan Shulman is the best in the business. He worked with Buck prior to Tabler joining the booth.

Good win. First blown save of the year for the team so that was nice to not let that slip away.

Awesome! Wow what a performance by J.A. Happ. Not an easy task to shut down the Red Sox.

Fun fact courtesy of the boys on the morning show....Granderson is the 3rd oldest Jay to hit a walk off HR in franchise history.

The other 2? Greg Zaun and Buck Martinez.

So Curtis can look forward to being a Jays broadcaster at some point then?

Great game from Happ, too bad he lost the 'W' thanks to ####ing #### call by the ump.

That was a strike you ####ing bozo, the Red Sox are good enough they don't help from blind umpires.

Thank goodness Granderson saved the game with his throw to home plate and then won it with his walk off homer.

The most surprising part of the missed call in the 9th was the strike zone was pretty consistently large all night long. I remember noticing as the game went on because the pace of play was crazy fast for a Boston game.

It was a weird play. Martin received the ball weirdly, the batter check swung.... And then everyone froze.

It looked like the ump knew it was a strike, but everyone froze and then it was like "Um ok ball next pitch..Ooops"

Pearce out by a mile at second until he pulls a matrix like move to avoid the tag.
