[Nate and the boys celebrating a six-run explosion rather than a six-run implosion](https://streamable.com/nf7htn)
What a fun game to watch! Nice to be back to .500
6 runs and a W…let’s gooooo and get em again tomorrow
I continue to wish all the success in the world for Nate
5+ runs you say?
6 runs? In this economy?
Without two key arms the pitching staff pitched a really nice game today. And the offense scattered the production too. That was a fun one
Good showing from the B crew on the call. Much better than Matt Devlin trying to call baseball
Ben needs to adjust to calling the game on TV rather than radio. We can see, so you don’t need to be that specific. Always love Joe though
A fun, intense Blue Jays baseball game where they scored >5 runs and ended in a win? I must be dreaming!
Nasty Nate locks it down. Big outing for him considering the team sent him down earlier
Vladdy’s contact is looking better
HOME RUNS!!
SIX RUNS!!
NATE PEARSON SAVE!!
BARGER FIRST HIT!
BO HIGH IN THE DUGOUT!!
THIS GAME HAD EVERYTHING!!
Jays won by scoring more than 5 runs.
Vladdy multi hit game.
Big Nate gets a save.
Bo took a day off.
Great game from Justin Turner
Nice add on runs to get the win
I have always believed in Nate Pearson
^(just trust me ok)
A really fun back and forth win!
Vladdy is heating up, Barger’s average exit velocity was 100+ and he has a fucking cannon for an arm, he could be very very special
2 for 2 with the power of powder blues!
BRB going to unclench my ass after that 9th inning…
Seriously though, the curse of 5 is over and we got a little payback for the series last week. I’ll take that any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
🤝 well done team. That’s a good win
Loved the heart and hustle from the team today, well done boys.
Something to be said about it being Vlad to drive in run number 6. Turner, better with age, fun game tonight boys.
That last at bat was fun to watch.
E2H5
Games like that aren’t the prettiest, but they are the reason I’ll always love this sport.
Fanatics, you owe us 15 wins after delaying our Lucky Baby Blues so damn long!
TU⚡️RNER
I mean, how do you not love Davis Schneider?
If Nate continues to bring the Dawg in him he’ll be huge for the Jays pen this year. 😤😤
Nathan
Octavius
Pearson,
Esquire
i’m telling you it’s the baby blue jerseys
Justin “crafty veteran” Turner and his unbuttoned top are here to save us all.
I saw a lot of Blocked User in the 9th inning but not 1 in the post game thread. How unusual
Edit: just got my first Reddit Cares message. What a time to be alive
Held my poop in for that 9th inning and now relief
Already sick of the Royals and I’m glad we squeaked this one out.
Praying for a miracle that Vlad goes nuclear. Pull the ball boys!
Nice W
6 runs I’d never thought I would see the day
Went to my first game of the year and we break the 5 run curse and have multiple homers in the game.
Who’s paying for me to go to all the games from now on?
