2015 MLB ALDS - Texas Rangers (88-74) @ Toronto Blue Jays (93-69)

I had a dream that it was 3-0 Jays in the first then 11-5 Texas in the 5th...

If it's any consolation my dream to reality ratio is 0, so... there's that.
 
Can the Jays get any breaks in this series?  Jeez, broken bat hit ends up a liner right at Odor who doubles runner off third.  I remember in Toronto Rangers broke their bat on a hit and was an RBI single.  So frustrating.
 
I think saving Price to backup Dickey in Game 4 would be the better way to go. But what to do with him already warmed up?
 
Lets start with a couple notable Jays firsts:

First time the Jays have ever won a playoff game while facing elimination.

Tulo is the first Jays shortstop to ever hit a playoff homerun.

I thought the Jays hitters were much more disciplined at the plate tonight compared to the first couple games. It helps that the home plate umpire was good for a change. The umpiring crew missed the balk, but other than that I thought it was a well called game.

Estrada pitched fantastic! He had all his pitches working and kept the Rangers hitters off-balance. You could really see guys like Fielder struggling to figure out what pitch was coming next.

Harold Reynolds is terrible! I could never stand the guy, but tonight he just took it to the next level. The guy doesn't have a clue about anything, but loves to hear himself talk. I groaned hearing his voice for Game 1, was happy that he didn't call Game 2 (believe it was Bob Costas) , but back to him for Game 3 tonight!

We stupid Canadians can't catch foul balls in the stands at games because we didn't grow up playing baseball apparently. Too busy spearing whales and building igloos I suppose.  ::)
At least Jamie Campbell fired back at him...

Larry Walker was great too: "I won 7 gold gloves. I think part of winning them was cause I could catch."


If anyone has that picture of Harold Reynolds beside the dog driving the car please post it...says it all!

Kansas City down 6-2 in the bottom of the 7th.  Whatever happens now the Jays aren't likely to be the 1st team eliminated.  Ex-Jay Colby Rasmus has gone off in the series.  3HR 5RBI hitting .600

And, if nothing else, what's happening to KC is a pretty good example of just how much of a crapshoot the playoffs are.
