| the ready position |
So rich a text was the Blue Jays two-out, eight-run rally in the third that I am not even sure George Springer's bases-loaded triple was even my favourite part of it (it might have been, though). With quick ground outs from both Springer and Vladdy, it looked like the Blue Jays were going to waste JBJ's leadoff double, until they extremely did not: Gurriel double, Kirk walk, Téo single, Bo single (pitching change), Biggio single, JBJ walk (bat-around inning!), Springer triple. It is a little sad that Vladdy grounded out twice in the same inning, but there were more positives than negatives here. Stripling made another very fine six-inning start, and both Phelps and Richards pitched ably in relief, which is good, because poor Yusei Kikuchi, in his second appearance out of the pen, very much did not. But he may yet! I have not ruled it out!
