vs. BLUE JAYS, 9/24

[LA2]

Bundy cruising along at 52 pitches in 5 innings. He's witnessed too many times the 'pen blowing leads and has decided to take things into his own hands. At this rate he may go the complete distance or at least 8 innings. Then they should bring in Wilkerson and hold the damage to 3-4 runs. Hopefully, we will still have enough of a lead then.

Still leaves the bad D problem unfixed.

Other than the HR allowed Bundy has been perfect and pitch efficient, too.

one hit -  a home run to the #9 hitter.  I hope for his sake that he doesn't complete this game with a nine-inning one-hit outing.  That would make a guy sick.

This is where Bundy usually falls apart.  After the fifth inning.

Doesn't he already have a one hitter...a bunt?

Like Eades last night. Game-losing HR to the weakest bat in the lineup.

Trey Mancini is just getting warmed up.  3-3 today after winning AL Player of the Week last week.  He's not ready for the season to end.

Trey's OPS is up to .897. I know, when you factor in the juiced ball, meh. 

[LA2]

Haha I was about to call that one like I called Crush's yesterday. Felt it in my bones....

[O's84]

No doubter.

[SteveA]

We led 7-1 the last time Bundy started, also against Toronto last Wednesday.

We lost that game.

[O's84]

Trey is literally on fire!

But but but.... Manfred said the balls weren't juiced. 

Manfred probably said the same thing about Bonds.

Figuratively.

He just won AL player of the Week:

"For the week, Mancini slashed an incredible .462/.484/.846 line."

[LA2]

Can we just cut to the bullpen collapse and errors? I have limited time today.
