Blue Jays GDT: (2017 v5.0) @ TB |Tue, Aug 22| 7pmET/4pmPT |Rowley vs Archer

[Del Preston]

If the baseball almanac is up to date, he just became the 38th pitcher in AL history, 85th overall, 3rd pitcher this season, and 2nd ever blue jay after Steve Delabar to hit the rare 4 Ks in 1 IP mark.

That sounds like a lot of people to share the mark at 85, but keep in mind that this dates back to 1888. so we're talking about nearly 130 years of history to account for. B-R says that's 213,606 total games to whatever date their "present" is accounting for, and somewhere around 3.8 million innings pitched.

Didn't even realize he struck out four that inning.

Another K as I type this.

It's going to suck if/when we lose this game ughhh

 

[OVO16]

This team has 0 clutchness in their genes

This offense just sucks. Has nothing to do with clutchness.

 

[vancityluongo]

Ahhhhhh

 

[Acekicker123]

There it is.

 

[canucksfan]

He pitched so well too

 

[HockeyThoughts]

annnd...yeah.

 

[Del Preston]

Damn. He deserved better.

 

[KarmaPolice]

That extra inning where Tulo led off would've looked completely different had he not botched his double into a single. He had a good hitting game, but that's no excuse.

 

[trellaine201]

Poor Bolsinger. ****** offense.

 

[Bad News Benning]

Glad that happened. This team needs to be put out of its misery like an old dog that can't move.

Tulo had a good hitting game but he did some stupid **** on the bases during the game. I didn't like his reaction earlier in the game when he was on 3rd and there was a rundown on a double play. He could have made it to home if he was off the base and running. He also tried stealing a base earlier in the game and utterly failing. Then the botched double was just sad as well.

Anyone know what's going on in Boston this week? No way they all just decided to meet up randomly in July in Boston to go to a game.

Eh they all (except Freddy to my knowledge) have some roots in Boston. Hanifin's from there, Pastrnak plays there, Matthews was teammates on the Jr Bs with Hanifin, Nylander is friends with Pastrnak and also played on the Jr Bs. They probably picked whenever the Jays were coming into town as a chance to meet up together.

 

[Al14]

I don't know about you, but Boston does not scare me at all when they have no power. They don't scare me this year. Very overrated team.

Overrated? So, the Jays should be 20 games behind them instead of only 9?

I'd take the overrated Red Sox squad over the Jays at the moment.

It's sad that Tulo and JD have gone bad overnight like a stale loaf of bread. Mold all over them lately.

The worst thing about that long single from Tulo was the effort level.

In the 11th, Pearce hit a ball off the monster and put his head down and charged out of the batter's box to stretch it to a double. And it led to a manufactured run on a sac fly a couple batters later. Tulo just jogged down to first and not surprisingly couldn't make it.

The guy is normally Mr. Fundamentals but that was awful. And possibly cost them the game.

Serious question, has Montero made a throw that hasn't bounced since joining the Blue Jays?

Just bounced one in a run down

 

[Suntouchable13]

Butterfield is a tool.

 

[Muston Atthews]

Let's go Sanch

 

[Del Preston]

Butterfield is a tool.

Butterfield and Farrell complain about every play.

No he hasn't done anything to prove he can throw at all

 

[canucksfan]

Morales could steal on montero
