| okay yeah that one's gone |
Between the rarely-seen rain in the SkyDome (close it close it close it), the two dudes who ran out onto the field and got tackled by security, and all of the slugging, I think we are forced to declare this to have been "a wild one." It's a shame about Ryu, as he's had some rough outings more or less since the All-Star break I guess: one certainly expects him to get farther than the fourth inning trailing by a tonne, and I bet Hyun-Jin Ryu feels that even more acutely than we do. It was nice to see the Blue Jays' bats get going for the first time in a while and put up a five-run inning; and Marcus Semien's 3-5 with two home runs was pretty sweet too; and a split against a team this good is a totally fine thing; but it's nevertheless a little disappointing not to have won this series with Ryu on the mound. Ah well! On to Detroit, with the Blue Jays now (let us check) okay yeah five-and-a-half back, the Red Sox must have beaten the Twins again (oh man, 12-2). And it looks like they play Cleveland next. None of this is any good. However! Maybe think of it this way: to win 92 (that ought to be enough, right?) the Blue Jays need to go 26-10 the rest of the way. That still sounds reasonable, right? Three against Detroit, three against Baltimore (who are now weirdly red hot coming off of their nineteen-game losing streak), and then a series against the A's that we all hope will be super important. It could still be! Possibly!
