2023 Game One-Hundred-Twelve: Blue Jays 5, Red Sox 4

 

La Makina

Although we are all of us grateful for Reese McGuire's game-ending TOOTBLAN (dude it's really not a homer, you should go back), I am sure Santiago Espinal appreciated it a little extra, as it took the heat off of his own regrettable TOOTBLAN from the inning previous (dude Kirk isn't tagging up at all, you should go back). What a weird game! Although the Blue Jays went up by three early enough, the whole thing felt fraught as, and it took strong work from the enigmatic GĂ©nesis Cabrera, the steadfast Yimi Garcia, the redoubtable Tim Mayza, and also Erik Swanson, who didn't exactly have it, but whomst got through it. Hey guess who went four for four? George Springer! And guess who went three for three? Davis Schneider, in his second game ever! As Brandon Belt noted after the game, at once joshingly and totally for real, it's all going to be downhill for Davis Schneider from here (in the negative sense [people say it both ways]).
