2021 Game One-Forty-Five: Rays 2, Blue Jays 0

 

neat shot of the grip

Well, what are you gonna do: the Blue Jays lost for only the second time in September, and were shut out for only the third time all season, and the Tampa Bay Rays are now the first team in the American League to ninety wins. Fair play to them. I barely caught any of this one at all, turning the radio off (for reasons of judo) just after Bo Bichette's diving stop to save a run in the top of the second, and by the time I returned to the radio (after having judo'd) the game was already complete in a tidy two hours and twenty minutes. Reports received through both the medium of SMS text message and also the medium of Blue Jays Baseball on the Sportsnet Radio Network brought to you by Jack Link's (Jack Link's: Send Hunger to the Minors) indicate that José Berríos pitched well, but solo home runs from Brandon Lowe and the rightly beloved Ji-Man Choi were the difference. So it goes. A three-way tie for the Wild Card spots is, in my view, no fun, as there are only two of those. Robbie Ray's up next in the rotation though!
