Now we cheer for the *barf* Yankees
Davis Schneider, Spencer Horwitz, and Ernie Clement are saving our season.
You have to swap Espinal for Barger, and you have to fire Dave Hudgens.
Vlad had a fantastic game today when the team needed him to. Don’t forget that.
It would be great to go sweep the A’s.
i do not like baseball at coors. let’s get the fuck out.
If we have to co-exist with you in here, can some of y’all at least learn to wait to doom until we lose? You’re really bad at dooming.
I’ll gladly not play at Coors Field next year.
Onto faux-Las Vegas we go!
I can’t believe we lost that series.
#THANK GOD
#I NEVER WANT TO PLAY IN COLORADO AGAIN
As we all expected. A nice easy win…
The kids, they are alright.
Love to see our young guys step up in a game like this.
Disaster avoided.
What a wild ride that game thread was.
Whit Merrifield…. Toronto’s new (literal) Bringer Of Rain.
Clutch hit Whit followed by emotional Whit are my favourite Whits.
The As are putting out 3 shitballers next. No mercy. Sweep or bust.
This was such a weird series, whatever, glad it’s over.
Great game from the boys
Best result of the day: Chad Green is 1-0 at a 27.00 ERA.
Let’s review what we have learned from this weekend:
The Buffalo Bisons are a great baseball team.
That was fucking clutch. Time to go 6-0 whilst the Rangers get swept by the Astros
Man coors is hell for pitchers.
Jays need to sweep the athletics or royals and win both series to get some cushion.
Blue Jays W!
Spencer Horwitz goes 3-4 with a walk, 2 RBI and a homer as the Toronto ~~Buffalo Bisons~~ Blue Jays win 7-5 against the Colorado Rockies.
“A few people on social media did not like this”
Jamie Campbell walks among us
#THE BUFFALO BLUE JAYS JUST STAMPEDED THROUGH YOUR STADIUM!
^(NOW LET’S GET THE FUCK OUT)
#🏔️🛫
Don’t look now, but the A’s have won 7 of their last 12
Horwitz gets the postgame with Hazel!
I just watched the second new Jumanji and I can’t not hear Danny Devito saying “SPENCA!”
that series aged me prematurely to such a degree that I just got my first old age pension check in the mail
Some of you really can’t handle baseball.
We won. Let’s go beat Oakland
