[Soft Hands]

Thank god we have 11 runs.

Estrada getting lit up

[Praxis]

Jim you're a good guy but JD has had much better years then Carter has ever had.

 

JD is an entirely different kind of hitter to Joe. JD is brilliant but Joe was also a legend, regardless of what modern day stats geeks say. Plus:

[Belliss101]

Bad pitching from Dickey, bad pitching from Buehlre, 3 long balls from Estrada (vintage 2014)...

 

Relax..It's a product of him pitching to the score. Up this big, you throw strikes and challenge. Solo homers mean nothing.

me no like him.... at all

[Governator]

His HR/FB has been at like 7% all year, bound to get a couple in a row sooner or later.

[Trouba95]

Hague? Goins? Carrera?

LOL....The Sky is falling we are up 11-3 but estrada gave up a couple solo shots.

Carter was good, but no way is he a baseball legend. A Blue Jay legend, sure.

Incredible moment (I still get goosebumps) but no...Carter was not a legend. Probably the most overrated bluejay.

The only other player to do what Joe did (Mazeroski) is in the hall of fame and his numbers are remarkably similar to or poorer than Joe's. The problem is Joe was a dick to the press and he played for the Jays.

Lol Pat Sajak is hiding, even he can't bare to watch.

[jaysfan2014]

Hey, it's Pat Sajak. Probably thinking how bad the Angels are playing and how much Wheel is losing ratings to Steve Harvey Family Feud (aka Phallic Feud)

[gruber92]

Question.. Is that Bedrosian reliever for the Angels the son of Steve Bedrosian?

Bill played second base and played it well according to the old timers. Carter was bad at defense

I wondered the same thing about Gott also, I'm sure if they were related we would've heard about it.

[Followthelight]

The Jays sure rained on the angels Ceremony.

Carter no slouch, no HoF either (legend - sarcasm)

I was thinking about Jim Gott also, but Gott is more of a common name. Yeah you would think we would have heard something by now.

[JPArenshitia]
