2021 Game One-Forty-Eight: Blue Jays 6, Twins 2

 

lol what's going on with Téo

The estimable Kaitlyn McGrath notes that the Blue Jays have not lost back-to-back games since the twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh of August, and those were to two different teams, even: the Tigers and the White Sox. I am pleased to report that this very good thing indeed continued Saturday, whereupon Marcus Semien hit is fortieth home run of the season (he is, you will recall, a second baseman), Teoscar Hernandez hit his twenty-eighth, Bo Bichette went three-for-four, and Vladdy picked up another hit and a pair of walks like it was no big deal (it is, though, and we appreciate it). Steven Matz settled in nicely after Josh Donaldson's first-inning home run (come on, man), and the bullpen went Richards to Mayza to Cimber to Romano just as slick as you please. Meanwhile, the Yankees appear to have blown it against Cleveland, which I obviously welcome at all times but especially today. Hey has it reached the point for you where you get pretty nervous now about each remaining Blue Jays game and feel that way on at least a background-level all day before they play and for some reason on off-days also? I ask for no reason other my general concern for your well-being as a fellow human.
