| Yusei Kikuchi, I say pitch (after the great Maureen Findlay Konnyu) |
Jackie Robinson Day is really nicely handled every time, in my experience, and they sure had a beautiful day for it on Saturday, as the early summer in Toronto continued (it is about to be replaced by, like, dank spring's revenge, apparently, and soon). As the visibly scorekeeping Geddy Lee no doubt noted, the Blue Jays managed five runs on just seven hits, which is not a tonne (of them), and pleasingly, it was the six-seven-eight hitters (Kirk, Merrifield, Jansen) who delivered the big ones. How efficient! But the star of the show was for sure Yusei Kikuchi, who just did such a great job, and was so happy, and everybody was so happy for him. A run on four hits and a walk over six innings with nine strikeouts? Yusei Kikuchi was dealing. Long may he deal. And that's a series win! Let's go for the sweep! Against the thirteen-and-two Rays! How hard could it be!
