Our ace Kikuchi on the bump!

I hope he goes 6 innings and walks off the field with his team πŸ’™

This hurts a lot. So many things that they could have done scoring wise but damn. Horrible. And everyone else is winning/won.

idk if it would've made a difference, but that decision to pinch run for Babe doesn't look great in hindsight

[–] imasnyper@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

Hindsights 20/20, but I don't hate the move in the moment. We needed a run to tie the game to extend it at that time. Kiermaier is easily our fastest runner, so by all means use him in that spot. It's like using your closer in the 8th in a tie game or down a run.

Barring a ridiculous comeback here, this is going to be one of the most difficult losses of the season.

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Alright, George-y!!! πŸ’ͺ #RallyforYusei

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

George should wear a cape in RF 😎

[–] imasnyper@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Bo 😬. We cannot afford to lose him again.

[–] imasnyper@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Tight quad...hopefully just precautionary.

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Stay hot, Babe πŸ”₯

[–] imasnyper@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

This game should not be this stressful.

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

I didn't realize Babe could play LF. Nice to have another way to get him into the lineup πŸ‘

[–] imasnyper@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Vladddddy πŸ’ͺ

[–] streetfestival@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

2nd deck, multi-run HR in the 1st inning for Vladdy πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ What a great way to start the game and what a great sign!

Off-topic: Jays twitter/nitter might be an easy place for quality Jays photos for the community. You can probably search to find specific moments too. This was captioned Yusei Day :) https://nitter.cz/pic/enc/bWVkaWEvRjRLZV9CYlc4QUE3SFhqLmpwZz9uYW1lPXNtYWxsJmZvcm1hdD13ZWJw

Appreciate it thanks! I'm pretty sure that's where I got the current Springer sidebar, so I'm not sure why I stopped haha. Sidebar Updated!

:P I hope he can look that relaxed after his start today :)
