2024 Games Eighty-Four through Eighty-Seven: Astros 3, Blue Jays 1; Blue Jays 7, Astros 6; Astros 9, Blue Jays 2; Astros 5, Blue Jays 3

 

there are roughly a squillion Blue Jays pictures
from this angle and I like every one of them

On Canada Day, Yariel Rodríguez took a perfect game into the fifth, but the Blue Jays lost 3-1; the next day, the Blue Jays jumped out to a 7-0 lead through four, and barely hung on for a 7-6 win. It actually felt kind of worse! This is the first season in what feels like a very long time that the Astros haven't been especially good, or even really all that good at all, so to lose three of four to them feels different (and pretty bad!) than it had in recent years (honestly who could mind it?). Anyway. On we go.
