What happened in the 8‑7 walk‑off win over the A’s?
Well, Jesse, after an emotional night to kick off the 2026 season on Friday evening, another drama-filled game today. Took extras for us to get here in game two of the season, but some uh thrilling heroics first from Alejandro Kirk in the ninth, a walk-off winner. Today it's Ernie Clement taking his turn with the uh Theatrics. The Jays are down 6-2, an 8-7 win for the The Jays as they improved to two and oh on the season. Pretty uh pretty wild stuff through two games here in uh here in the city.
I know you keep track of the win loss record of people you do blue face talk with. And I was getting a little nervous sitting right behind you thinking, Oh, we're gonna get off to a tough start here, oh and one, Jays are down six two. And then just a clinic of Blue Jays baseball. Down 6-2, you manage to score in three straight innings, claw your way back into the game, and clutch performances once again from guys that you have come to expect them from. It doesn't always come from Vladimir Guerrero Jr. It comes up and down the lineup. You saw with Alejandro Kirk, he gets the game tying home run, and then Ernie Clement. And honestly, even before you got to Ernie Clement. Clement. Yeah. There were contributions throughout for this game.
It doesn't end eight seven Blue Jays unless you get that. And we can talk about so many. Jimenez, Spencer Miles getting his first win in his debut. Great stuff. Just a complete team effort to get this team out to a two and oh record.

How did Dylan Cease dominate with 12 strikeouts in 5.1 innings?
The people's text line is always open. Standard messaging and data rates may apply. It's I'm glad you mentioned That there are so many ways we could go here because you're right, I mean it's not just Kirk. It's not just Clement, although they are a big parts of this, no question.
Why did the Blue Jays’ bullpen struggle with Mason Fluhardy and Brendan Little?
But it's also Varsho. It's George Springer who started off the scoring. It is Andres Jimenez who again having a hot start to the season. If you want to look at the pitchers, there were fifteen combined pitchers that played in this game. I forgot that Dylan C started this game to be honest. Seven from the A's, eight from the Jays, and Dylan C struck out twelve, which what in what feels like This game was almost four hours, but Dylan's G striking out 12 batters felt like it happened a whole lifetime ago. They effectively played, I know not in innings, but just in events that happened in this ballgame. They essentially played a whole other game, essentially, after the uh Jays went down 6-2. Yeah. I I won't lie to you, when they went down 6-2, thankfully we will be spared from scrutinizing Band and Little giving up a grandson.
Will we will we be spared from that? Will we? Will we be spared from that? We'll we'll get to it. Don't get don't get me wrong. But after that happened, I definitely thought to myself, Oh my god, I can't believe our first J Soccer season is gonna be about this.
How did the intentional walk to Daulton Varsho set up Ernie Clement’s heroics?
And and Blair got the exciting walk off yesterday. So I am happy we get to talk about something a little more positive.
Yeah, I mean my parking ran out probably an hour ago, so I'm in I'm in big trouble when it comes to that. Uh but yeah, it it's it just it feels like the excitement level from twenty twenty five is carried over into twenty twenty six. You get back to back walk offs, you get uh a pitcher in Kevin Gossman yesterday who finishes with twelve strikeouts, you have Dylan Seasko for eleven strikers, are the first Blue Jays teammates uh to start the season. First actually two major league pitchers to start a season back to back. with 11 or more strikeouts, which is unbelievable. Since 1901 and first Blue Jays teammates to go uh 11 or more strikeouts back to back.
