2023 Game One-Hundred-Fourteen: Blue Jays 3, Guardians 1

Keith Law in shambles

As if his two-run home run in the top of the eighth inning had been insufficiently rad—it was not! its radness was totally sufficient!—Cavan Biggio soon thereafter completed an unassisted double play of an exceedingly rare sort for a second baseman in which he himself stepped on first to end the bottom half of that same eighth. I believe it was the first such one in five years or something! Honestly, I couldn't get it out of my head. It made for a cheerful end to a game that had been less cheerful a mere handful of innings before, when Hyun-Jin Ryu's no-hitter ended not with a base hit so much as with a liner ripped right off the inside of his knee. Maybe he'll be fine? He sure pitched great!
