2023 Game One-Hundred-Seventeen: Guardians 4, Blue Jays 3

 

plus he got kicked out

The Blue Jays brought two across in the seventh, and for sure needed a couple more, but left the bases loaded (again). Our RISP woes continue! I believe it is this very specific kind of woe that's making things feel a whole lot worse than they actually are right now. This was a five-and-two road trip, which you would take every time, and the Blue Jays are actually like sixteen-and-five in their last twenty-one on the road, which is obviously fantastic, but the overall emotional situation (which aligns with the material situation) is one of colleagues stranding colleagues. It's been brutal! It doesn't help that the Mariners have won seven straight, and continue to lurk hardly. And so we sit, a game-and-a-half ahead of the Mariners, a game-and-a-half behind the Astros. At least the Mariners have to deal with Baltimore this weekend! That's something!
