[TF97]

Need to win this game today, can't lose this series.

 

[The Nemesis]

Smoak plays, hits HR, will probably be benched again next game for Colabello.

 

[Schennanigans]

What a start, ha ha.

 

[Swervin81]

Pillar, you dumbass.

Anyways, great inning.

 

[Canada4Gold]

good start to the game. Haven't really been paying attention while waiting for the Kessel details to come out. Now that they're all out baseball time.

[TF97]

Bautista Bomb!

 

[Canada4Gold]

Hey! There's a first for everything. Carrera finally makes a catch when he leaves his feet.

He was 0 for 6 before that iirc.

 

[TootooTrain]

Carrera dove for a ball and the amazing part is he caught it!

 

[TF97]

Nice catch Ezequiel!

 

[shakes]

I really hope (this game notwithstanding) that this isn't the start of the July collapse. Really big letdown with the way these guys were playing to just **** the bed like they did in the last two games.

 

[TF97]

Big Smoaky does it again!

 

[Quares27]

Wow nearly upper deck

 

[Canada4Gold]

It's like Smoak is actually a good hitter or something

If Navarro is in the lineup tomorrow and Smoak isn't I'm going to riot

 

[Swervin81]

Absolutely Smoaked.

But no, we need to put Navarro in the lineup

 

[LaCarriere]

why isn't smoak playing every day yet? We need more of EE and Colabello at first...

 

[TF97]

This is why I've been such a big supporter of Smoak since we acquired him. He's a switch hitting 1B with a good eye and good pop. He also has a great glove at first which is very valuable since our left side of the infield has been known for their inaccurate throws.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Navarro jumping in fear after Smoak's HR? He's afraid he's never going to get back in the lineup of course.

Hanley almost butchered that catch.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Martin needs to be on 2nd there. I know running hard on every pop up sucks, but every now and then that will happen.

and look, if he were on 2nd that's not a double play.

goo thing it's 8-0

 

[dredeye]

Man it's quiet in here today.

 

[TF97]

Good outing from Buehrle

 

[Summer Rose]

Well, I failed at waking up in time to watch this game.

Anyway, happy Canada Day everyone!

 

[Canada4Gold]

wouldn't be a Buehrle start without scoring more than 10 runs.

It's really weird how Buehrle and Hutch are getting all the run support and the other pitchers aren't getting any

 

[The Nemesis]

wouldn't be a Buehrle start without scoring more than 10 runs.

It's really weird how Buehrle and Hutch are getting all the run support and the other pitchers aren't getting any

correlation = causation.

Buehrle's calm winning presence on the dugout bench makes the Jays score more runs.
