Blue Jays GDT: 2018 v2| Next: Fri May 18 | vs Oak| 7pm ET/4pm PT | Anderson vs Estrada

[The Nemesis]

I brought this topic up in the other thread. Did McGowan take his into the 9th? I have memories of multiple pitchers carrying a no-hitter into the 6th and 7th. But not many into the 8th and 9th.

I want to say he made it into the 9th, but barely. Like the first or second guy he faced that inning broke it up.

 

[The Nemesis]

Lol, like 5 of the next 6 games are on Sportsnet 1, which of course coincides with me being away and in a place where I can only get regular Sportsnet. Guess I'm going to have to watch on my laptop when I have time. Ugh.

 

[Eyedea]

McGowan lost his on the first batter in the 9th inning

 

[canucksfan]

Just wait for Stanton and judge to find a rhythm, they’ll get hot and I hope we don’t play them when they are

Judge is doing well. Right now, their offense is Judge and Didi.

Blame the NHL playoffs. We can just tell the Sharks they're eliminated if that helps

The McGowan one is very, very vague in my memory.

I believe Stieb had three no-hitters broken up with two outs in the 9th (one of them was a perfect game attempt and he had another one when he gave up the hit early in the game and it ended up being a one-hitter - I think - I may be combining games in my memory.).

Halladay and Morrow are the only others ones I remember going into the 9th.

 

[Longshot]

Is tomorrow the Facebook game?

You can do that and I guarantee that half the fanbase wouldn't even notice because they already assume it's true.

Though it actually turns out that the Sharks/Ducks series games 3 and 4 are on SN1 as well (I'll be home for sure for game 4, but not necessarily game 3)

Oh awesome. The Jays game on the 16th is on SN1 preceding the Sharks/Ducks game. So that'll probably go 14 innings and mean nobody can watch that hockey game then. Because luck.

I'm probably going to end up watching most Jays games upcoming on my phone using SN Now while watching hockey on TV or vice versa. Does anyone know if the game that are facebook games will be available on SN now. I'm not sure what the hell they are putting games on facebook only for. For example the April 18th game at 4 ET when there's absolutely nothing on SN is on facebook for some reason. Whatever they're trying it's guaranteed to fail miserably.

Facebook signed some deal with MLB to air games on their own platform as an attempt to establish facebook as a broadcasting alternative. This means that there are no other options to watch those games. It's either facebook or radio. Luckily for the Jays it's only 2 games. It's 25 games across all of baseball so it's possible that some teams' fans get more hosed than us.

 

[Loosie]

Also...the Jays have yet to lose a series this year.

 

[Superstar]

Granderson smacked that ball good!

 

[rojac]

Is tomorrow the Facebook game?

No, that’s next Wednesday, April 18.

Are they free?

 

[Maplebeasts]

So far so good for the boys. Line-up has been better than I expected and our bullpen has been fire.

Report: 974 Fans Attended Rays vs. White Sox Game at Guaranteed Rate Field

That’s actually embarrassing.

There is some underlying context that the writer forgot to mention though. The game was pushed from 7pm to 1pm the night before and it was also snowing during the game.

 

[The Nemesis]

Are they free?

I think so. There may be questions about availability in Canada though. When this whole idea first came up, I heard mention that WWE did some sort of batch of wrestling shows on Facebook that weren't available through other means (even on their own pay subscribers network) and a bunch of people in Canada got the dreaded "this content is not available in your region" warning when they tried to watch. Who knows if Facebook causes something like that to happen again.

 

[Nineteen67]

I was driving home from my son’s game last night listening to the end of the game on the radio and was very strange not hearing any fan reactions to the play.

 

[ShaneFalco]

If you wear your jersey really loosely, and if the ball even grazes it, well that's a hit by pitch mister. Take a base

Out of curiosity do they actually just let you sit wherever you want at that point? Could I just go sit beside the dugout or would the ushers push back on that?

Back when the jays weren’t drawing well I was able to sit in some really good seats. The ushers don’t “let you” but if you keep your ticket in your pocket and look like you know where you’re going it’s not hard

 

[The Nemesis]

Forgot to set the new title and bump this ahead of the game

 

[TootooTrain]

Estrada goin full iceman.

 

[Eyedea]

I'm not seeing how Ngoepe's defence could possibly salvage his bat.
