There we go, good hit for Josh. Time to get on the rookie now.

 

[Virtanen18]

Why are we ******** on Estrada? Doesn't he have like the lowest ERA in Jays playoff history?

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Too little too late?

I don't get it either. At the end of the day...0 runs...1 hit...

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Very outside. Ugh.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Really not a fan of blaming the pitchers for this.

Estrada has gotten literally zero run support in the 10 innings he pitched in this series.

The pitching is not to blame here.

 

[PBandJ]

Oh for **** sake.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Wow, from a looming walk to put the tying run at the plate to a double play.

 

[Virtanen18]

I don't get it either. At the end of the day...0 runs...1 hit...

And there's a DP. But hey, hope Jays brass is looking at the pitching which has been dominant all season long.

 

[Blitzkrug]

And now this situation goes from tough to dire.

The next time the Jays big 3 come through the order is almost assuredly Miller/Allen territory.

 

[Muston Atthews]

Lmao. ****ing Merritt

 

[Virtanen18]

That 3-1 was outside as ****

 

[PBandJ]

I thought that 3-1 just nibbled the edge of the plate, but it could have been the camera angle messing with me.

Yep other than JD none of the big bats is hitting anywhere near well enough.

 

[Timeless Winter]

Couldn't have been more over the plate.

 

[Virtanen18]

Couldn't have been more over the plate.

I'd argue a pitch straight down the middle of the strike zone is more over the plate, but that's just me.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Couldn't have been more over the plate.

Let's not get crazy now. It was a borderline strike call.

 

[Neutrinos]

My point about Estrada was that the more teams face him in a series, the more likely he is to get hit

He doesn't have electric stuff, so batters are going to have an easier time figuring him out than they would a typical ace throwing 95+

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

I'd argue a pitch straight down the middle of the strike zone is more over the plate, but that's just me.

Lol, was thinking that.

"Cleveland doesn't get frustrated" right as the Indians batter swearing at a checked swing call.

And Napoli swears at missing on a changeup.

It's also a lot easier not to get frustrated when you never trailed in a game in the series until you were up 3-0.

 

[Blitzkrug]

If Tulo gets on here for the love god, pinch hit for Martin.

 

[Five Alarm Fire]

TBS has been so annoying all series. Really rubs the salt in the wound.

Oh, I don't necessarily disagree with the point he was making, it's just funny that he was contradicted almost immediately.

 

[hatterson]

Feels like they need to get at least something here or the game is over.

I know it wouldn't be as they could put up a 5 spot on a moments notice, but that's just how it feels given how things have gone so far.
