GDT (4/4) | Blue Jays (79-63) @ Orioles (46-96) | September 12 — 1:05 PM

[Effit]

Seriously, if it takes Thornton 100 pitches to get through 3 innings, let him. Don't waste a good arm on today's game. Let him give up another 7-8 runs. Means nothing.

 

Keep him in until his arm falls off. I need a good laugh and this s*** is f***ing comedy gold.

[Inklink]

Me watching Thornton

 

[travisinfla]

Orioles pitcher Greene is an avid surfer, and has also worked as a model. He is friends with actor Charlie Sheen, and made several minor appearances on the television series Anger Management. haha

[Abomination]

TB lost on a bases loaded walk.

ouch

[InvincibleTiger]

Wouldn't this be an ideal spot to have Merryweather get right?

Mostly agree but getting Merryweather in for a low leverage inning is probably a good call. Won’t have many chances to get him right.

9th inning.

[Omar]

And when we destroy the Orioles, we will blast a crater in their baseball memory so deep that they won't come within 1,000 klicks of this place ever again.

[travisinfla]

looks like the catching competition brings out the best in them

[JaysAllMighty]

Lol

[rydermike]

I shall call Merry weather the Bring Of Heat. Since he can hit 100 and was traded for Do aldson

[travisinfla]

Our relief pitching suddenly looks strong - Pearson, Merryweather, Romano, Cimber, Richards, Soria, Mayza, Stripling

I'm going to need to see consistent performances from the bolded before I call that.

Agree, should add potentially to them. Merryweather was lights out in April has great velocity, but Rusty, well Pearson has the stuff but is inconsistent but can be great, and Soria not sure about him, crafty veteran change of pace guy.

[Solaxys]

Good game lads, no stress

[JaysAllMighty]

Great game, back home to keep the winning streak going!

Did what they needed to do after dropping that first game of the series.

[travisinfla]

1-0 White Sox in bottom of 8th, switching over to that one

[Krylian]

Lol @ Jake Lamb comparing the Jays offence to the White Sox

[travisinfla]

Were 2nd in Runs Scored at 757 only to the Rays 775, White Sox are 706, with run differential of 167 third in AL behind Tampa 177 and Houston 176...White Sox at 133

[travisinfla]

Leadoff double top of 9 for Boston no out, booo

[saskjayfan]

Best possible outcome...Chicago blows the save and the red sox tie it. They bring in Whitlock and he gives up the game winner....burn up those high leverage guys....Jays tied with the Sox for the top wild card spot!

[Jonn]

 

Lamb Haters Mad.

[Eat My Shatkins]

Well I unrealistically and idiotically was hoping for a 12 game win streak leading up to the first Rays game. Figured a miracle like that would get the Jays back in the race.

 

Disappointing. I guess we'll have to settle for 11-1 instead lol

[Bluebombers]

We tore the Baltimore Gloryholes a new one

[JuniorFelix54]

22 runs holy crap, just incredible

[InvincibleTiger]

Tomorrow will mark the biggest test of the season for our Blue Jays. I think I'd be content with a split in the 6 games vs the Rays and 9-4 vs the Twins, Yankees and Orioles which would give us the 92 wins.
