My two favourite things in life are a Jays win and a Yankees loss. When I get both in the same game\u2026well there is nothing better.<\/p>\n
I also love game when the Jays score early often.<\/p>\n
The Jays are now four games up on the Yankees and Red Sox (could be 4.5 over over the Red Sox if the Diamondbacks can hold an early lead).<\/p>\n
Kevin Gausman was incredible tonight. He seems to raise to the occasion for us. Tonight, eight innings, just four hits, one earned (an Aaron Judge home run), one walk with five strikeouts. He couldn\u2019t have been better.<\/p>\n
Braydon Fisher pitched the ninth, but then I could have finished out that game (editor note: no he couldn\u2019t), helped out by a nice 6-4-3 double play to end the game.<\/p>\n
And on offense, we scored three in the first and never looked back.<\/p>\n
We had 11 hits on the day. Vlad had four, he seems to have righted the ship after a slow start coming back from the hamstring issue. Bo had three hits. And Varsho had two. Our three, four, five guys went 9 for 13, with a walk, five runs, and four RBI.<\/p>\n
Springer, Barger (with one walk), Kirk (with two walks) and Andr\u00e9s Gim\u00e9nez had 0 fors.<\/p>\n
Jays of the Day: Gausman (.233 WPA), Bo (.135), Lukes (.124, 1 for 4, but 2 RBI), and Vlad (.102).<\/p>\n
No one gets the other award. Gimenez had the low mark at -.031.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"My two favourite things in life are a Jays win and a Yankees loss.
