2021 Game Sixteen: Royals 2, Blue Jays 0

 

Again.

A pitcher's duel, right? And yet a super weird one: for the Royals, Brady Singer allowed just two hits and three walks in six scoreless innings, and Zimmer, Staumont, and Holland held the Blue Jays hitless the the rest of the way. Robbie Ray, though, probably pitched the worst scoreless five innings you're likely to see: four hits and six walks! But he kept working his way out of trouble. Mayza, Zeuch, and Roark came out of the pen for the Blue Jays and were, if we take a broad view, totally fine, it's just that Salvador Perez hit his second game-winning home run in as many days -- in the seventh, once again, but off Zeuch this time.  A scheduled off-day tomorrow; perhaps a time for reflection?
