Hi guys,
i'm new to this board, so hello everybody
To be honestly, i didn't watch baseball until 4 weeks ago. So you may wonder what's the reason i'm watching baseball now and becoming a Blue Jays fan
Actually it's pretty simple. I did a language trip to Toronto from the 12th September until the 10th October. My homestay host was a Blue Jays fan and we watched a game against the Yankees live at tv. I didn't understand how the game works, the rules, not even the basics. So she explained it to me and I suddenly realized that baseball is quiet easy to understand once you know at least the basics. I started to follow the matches of the Blue Jays and begun to like this sport.
Because I still suffer from the jetlag (i'm from Germany and the time difference is +6h) i couldn't sleep and so I decided to watch the match until the end (2am CET). It was so intense and fascinating, and when Bautista hit that 3-run homer I was full of joy , especially after that curious point which gave the Rangers the 3-2 lead.
I'm still a novice so I don't understand a lot of all those statistics, tactics, rules etc., but I'm going to make progress in the future
Toronto is such a amazing city and I'm so sad that I've only been there for 1 month. I met so many nice people from all over the world, I will never forget this experience and hope that I will come back soon
Now I'm looking forward for the series against KC.
Let's Go Blue Jays!
