What was the overall significance of the Jays' 5‑4 win over the Yankees?
Hi, Kevin Barker. I don't know about you, but I thought Very, very early in this game tonight, and it wasn't in front of a sellout crowd of forty thousand six hundred and nineteen. There was just a different atmosphere. at the ballpark. You could tell that it was A game of considerable significance, I think, for the for the fans that were here, obviously, but as well as the Blue Jays, the Jays winning 5-4 over the New York Yankees, 416-870-0590, star 591-388-366-0590, 590-590. If you want to reach us via text. Folks, if you're in the car, you're not going anywhere. So give us a call, hands-free. Always. Mr. Barker, a 5-4 win. Bow scratched early in the game. Springer leaving the game after sustaining some sort of injury sliding into third base.
A team that's already shorthanded, becoming more shorthanded as the game went on. But my goodness, you know, Vladdy with those those two RBIs. And again the bottom of the order contributing Miles Straw, uh Nathan Lucas again. Coming through and contributing. And Miles Straw, shout out to Miles Straw for some of the defense that he showed late in the game in particular. A good win for the Blue Jays.
Yeah, I mean we've talked about this right. Having those bats with runners on base is a big deal. You mentioned that the the sixth inning, you know, Lucas came in with the pinch at RBI single. Davis Schneider got it started with the seven pitch double, uh milestraw with some, you know, some good at bats, some good defense in center field in the sixth inning there with the with the four runs. They had seven at bats with with runners on the base, which is a big deal. And then the black Now I'm not a huge fan, I always say it about hard hit rate. But that's pretty hard, right? I mean, again, it's the big league's main. Should that play have been made? Should that play have been made, do you think? Absolutely.
Okay. I mean, you know, good third baseman should make those plays. It's a little bit to your left. You know, you have good quick reaction time. But again, you know, that's not Vladdy's fault. Vladdy's job is to hit Yeah. Now if he's a tick earlier, he hits that thing to the moon, but he wasn't. You you know when you're a little bit late, you're a little bit out and around, your foot's down on time. Look, it looked to me like today he was making a little bit more of a conscious effort to get it started a little sooner, right? Everything starts from the ground up. That thing gets started sooner, everything else is going to follow. You'll be a little bit more on time when your foot hits the ground, but who cares?
I mean he had three R RBI said this on our show today. Without Bo, he's gonna have to do something, right? These are the games that you gave him the half a billion dollar for, right? I mean, everybody else against pitching that he they're about to see, obviously today or and Rodon, tomorrow, and Max Fried, those are times that Vladdy needs to show up. And Vladdy needs to get the big time hits, and that's what happened today. Uh Scherzer was good enough, and then you can tell John Schneider, the manager. Well, it was churning on how he's gonna get right. It didn't seem like uh Rodriguez was available or Stanley was available. So if you don't have those two guys, it's about when do you use your two lefties, how you gonna get green in the game, how you gonna get Hoffman the ball with the lead.
You know, you use Fisher when you use Fisher because that's the right pocket. It was a little interesting to see little coming in. behind in the game. Would you have flipped him and Fluhardy? Again, that's that's an interesting topic, right? I mean you gotta know your pitcher. I mean it just it's a it's a it is a very odd time to see because of what Fluhardy's doing. It's almost like John was thinking, if I can hold the deficit and I know who's coming back around, you know, my top of the lineup's gonna get at least a couple more cracks at it. If I can hold the deficit, at least I have a chance to have the big inning. And guess what, Jeff? That's exactly what happened.
