2023 Game Eighty: Giants 3, Blue Jays 0

 

at least there was a guy throwing underhand 

It is never a great feeling to to first and third, nobody out, and come away without a run (R.I.P. to the Blue Jays; they never scored), but when it happens in the first inning, how bad is it really? Eight more chances! That's what you'll get! Surely we'll push somebody across! And yet no: Kevin Gausman's twelve strikeouts (including the 1500th of his fine career) over seven innings were sort of for naught, as the Blue Jays somehow managed not to score despite eight hits (a possible factor: they drew no walks, and were struck out seventeen times, which is just so many times). I enjoyed our two days in a Wild Card spot! Felt like old times!
