Stupid Canadians. It's all their fault 

In general I respect Canada for being less of a #%*^ show than us, but most Canadians I know are insufferable.  And Blue Jays fans are even worse.  I’d actually root for the Rays in the playoffs, not the BJs tho.

It's like they all drank a pot of coffee before the broadcast and are wired out of their minds. 

Data-drowned, over-exerted voices all competing to get air time over each other.

What was that weird "Pouhp!" from Newman?

I started listening to music to drown out the sounds of the announcers. I must have missed that one.

So, after Biggio is hit by the pitch, Chris Young incorrectly states that the batter does not need to move out of the way because he has the right to “hold his ground.”  However, the rule is:

“(1) A batter must attempt to avoid being hit by the pitch. If he does not attempt to avoid being hit by the pitch then:

a) If the ball is outside the strike zone when it touches the batter, the ball is dead, it shall be called a ball and the batter is not awarded first base.
b) If the ball is inside the strike zone when it touches the batter, the ball is dead, it shall be called a strike and the batter is not awarded first base.”

I've heard it a few times. I backed it up and realize it's the ump calling a strike. She was speaking when it happened most prominently.

Haha Gunnar Bomb!

[dtk9119]

Love that kid Gunnar!

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

Gunnar is going to be an MVP candidate and maybe as soon as next season. 

[Moose Milligan]

Too little, too late.

[WillyM]

Wish the Orioles could have saved Gunnar's hit for tomorrow.

[NashLumber]

The Love Gun-nar!

So what 5 hits and Gunnar had 2 of them? Elias better be able to back up the Brinks truck for some hitting upgrades. 

Or they need to learn how to hit in SP.

A sign of times to come: offense tonight supplied completely by the two future stars.

A former co-worker of mine picked up Adley and Gunnar both at my suggestion (fantasy baseball).  He's in the playoffs.

Shame we don't work together anymore, I'd be able to score a lunch out of it.

Oh, and it's a dynasty league.

And screw the Blue Jays their fans might be more whiny than even Red Sox nation. They won the game, but are still complaining about the attention Gunnar received during the broadcast tonight.
