Are you f***ing kidding... how does Barger not score on that damn play.  Pathetic baserunning 

I mean... a half competent OF makes that catch about 95% of the time he was headed back to tag. Reynolds whiffed bigtime.

He was going to tag up if the ball was caught, which it should've been.

I understand but the fielder ran by the ball and threw a sloppy cutoff.  Barger should have enough speed to score on that easily.

Ok.. Crooked number these mothers 

[John_Havok]

c'mon ernie, make them pay for that error ....

[Jays24]

He was standing on the bag at second, would have been tough plus he was held up. That was all on Kirk for not keeping his head up.

should have went a little further but I guess he thought 0 out and it was a fly ball so he held up

[neverbeenhere]

Not bad, 3 runs to start pitching, Scherzer should be very comfortable

And an easily catchable ball where you have to advance to 3rd when it's caught. The only baserunning blunder on that play was Kirk.

If anyone loves being staked to a 3-run lead before he even takes the mound, it would be Scherzer. 

[John_Havok]

16 pitches.. 13 strikes. That's how you attack these limp dicks. 

[John_Havok]

bahahahaha - Attaboy George!

[neverbeenhere]

Springer is the captain 

[Laika]

Springading

[Omar]

George is back!!!

[glory]

Man it feels good to have George back in the lineup.

[Jays24]

And that folks is why Springer is batting leadoff.  Get this man the most ABs!!!

[dancingmachine]

Springer Dinger 

[Jonn]

Now this is what you do with the Pirates.

[John_Havok]

HBP - SB - 2 run dinger. Nice start to the game by Mr Springer. 

[Spanky__99]

MVP Springer Dinger!

[hanton]

Springer picked up that breaking ball and demolished it

[Masterbather]

So nice to have big George back!

[John_Havok]

5 runs on 3 hits... and Keller already near 60 pitches after 2 innings. Could be a very good night for the sticks. Jays record when scoring 5 or more runs? 52-3 if my count is right. 

[Jonn]

Unc battle right here. Max vs McCutchen

[John_Havok]

Lets go Max, get back in strike zone here. no need to nibble. 

[neverbeenhere]

Come on Max
