The Blue Jays won yesterday's game 1 of the 5-game series, 10-1! It was a statement win, but we had our best starter going against the Yankees 4th best. Things will be different today, as we face the Yankees' best starter, while Yesavage pitches for us, who's been awesome but who started the season playing low A ball.

Yankees would love to split the pair of games in Toronto. Jays would like to take the series back to the Bronx 2-0 Blue Jays. Go Blue Jays!!!

Our glorious catcher who's hitting 6-12 with 5 HRs:

A statement win, but it wasn't really that way until the 7th.

I think Vlad's homer was exactly what they needed to shake the nerves though. I feel Vlad's susceptible to getting down on himself and that was exactly what he needed to start this post season.

Now in game 2 the bats are hot and the pitching ice cold. I'm excited for this run!

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Game 1 was definitely an encouraging game for Vlad (on both sides) and like the whole team. Let's keep this momentum up!!!

Today's first goal is to knock Yanks' ace pitcher, Max Fried, out of the game, after the Yanks used so many bullpen arms yesterday πŸ’ͺ

Gotta throw it out to the fans too, they are LOUD. That's a big part of this.

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Imagine how loud it'd be if the Dome were closed 😳

Blue Jays' Captain (Kirk) > Yankees' Captain (Judge)

great debut for yesavage so far!

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago

Striking out 8-9-1 so that Judge leads off in the 4th. Pitching genius right here

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago

100%. Hope he's as solid 2nd time thru the order!

[–] GrindingGears@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Franchise post season record at this point. In the fourth. OMG what is going on, is this real life!!??!

LFG

Great start from Yesavage πŸ’ͺ

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago

Judge looked weak in RF on that Varsh triple. Ern-Dawg gets 'er done against Fried with the 2-run blast 😎

[–] 9488fcea02a9@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

HOLY SHIT.... this is so insane!!!! another dinger! fuck the yankees... i hope they burn out the whole bullpen and put a position player on the mound

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

this is so insane!!!

It really is. Epic Jays start. Humiliating start for the Yanks

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Today's starting lineup

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Dominant 5-0 start after 3 innings. We taking the series to NY with a 2-0 lead or what? LFG Jays!!!

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Trey Yesavage today: 5.1 IP, 0 hits, 0 runs, 1 BB, 11 KK, 78 pitches. Bruihl giving up 2 right after reinforces how good Trey was

[–] GrindingGears@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

AaahaaahahhhHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhHHHHHHHHHHHH

LETSFUCKINGHOOoiiiiIIIIioooiiiiiooooooo

[–] MyBrainHurts@piefed.ca 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Just watched Yesavage strike out the side, what a beast!

[–] GrindingGears@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

Outting of a lot of pitchers lifetimes, in his fourth game.

Holy cow. And his parents are there <3, you just gotta love it.

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Incredible start so far. He was sitting a long time during the 4th as the lineup put up 6 runs. Wonder how he'll look in the top 5. He has a very comfortable lead lol

[–] 9488fcea02a9@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

historic debut... WOW... 11Ks thus far

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

Judging by his dugout behaviour, he looks like he's going out for the 6th!

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Friends, it don't get much better than this 😎 Outscoring the Yanks 21-1 after 16 innings of the DS

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Woooooooow. Feelings running high during Trey's post-game interview with Hazel on the field.

Damn, it feels good to be up 2-0

[–] 9488fcea02a9@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

i'm so bummed that we have to wait until tuesday....

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago
[–] 9488fcea02a9@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

damn guys. save something for the world series....

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Bullpen hasn't been great... Hope we can get out of the 7th unscathed

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

Varland was very good! Seranthony to close it out, lfg!!!
