    Reynolds got an infield hit (? I thought it was an error?) earlier in the game, and gets a straight-up single this time. He looks like he's trying to climb that long ladder back from slumping to hitting home runs. If he does successfully climb it, it'll probably be a while.

    You can tell a player is starting to see the ball better when they are getting more hits... so once somebody like Reynolds can see the ball, the home runs are not far behind.

    Reynolds 1st was a infield hit. The 3B tried to bare hand to make a awesome play.

    At least four. Every lead-off walk that Drabek gave up -- all three of them -- got doubled up. And the fourth off the Jays' reliever, whoever he was.

    Lindstrom looks like he could be a closer option as well.
