2021 Game Eighty-Three: Orioles 7, Blue Jays 5

 

lol yeah me too, guys; me too

You might well see Orioles 7, Blue Jays 5 and think "I guess they lost a tight one" but they sure didn't! After Semien walked, Bo singled, and Vladdy knocked him in with a sac fly in the first, the Blue Jays went down 4-1 not so long thereafter as Steven Matz didn't really have it, and then 7-1 as Thornton, in relief, turned out to have even less of it. Am I pleased that Grichuk later homered? And Vladdy, too? Of course! But this one was kind of a drag, except for how it was in Camden Yards, and every time the ball was hit to right field we were like, "ooh, warehouse!" Oriole Park has been around for very nearly thirty years now, and it is still a genuine delight to see every time. Hyun-Jin Ryu goes tonight, and that might be a delight too, maybe?
