Imagine what it must be like to play teams like this all season like Tampa has.

Espinal says I'm not getting moved down the depth chart without a fight. I like what he's provided today

A fun game with Jays middle-order hitters this year: looking at their spray chart and trying to determine whether they're left or right-handed.

That may have been the most pathetic display of baseball I've ever seen by the White Sox this series lmao

Also: 17 Ks?!?!?!

Our relivers allowed ONE batter to even put a ball in play.

Went to the game today, tons of middle school and high school kids, I guess Jays doing promotions for students for afternoon games

The kids in the 500s actually kept up the atmosphere with cheers and doing the wave, otherwise the game was just a one-sided beat down

Really impressed with Kikuchi and the relievers today. Good showing by hitters all around too. Hope Springer is okay with the hand. I can't remember if he made that catch in foul territory before or after getting hit.

It's great to go to the game in person again, last time was 2017

Looks Ike kikuchi is officially a beast. I'm happy for him.

I would have never thought Berrios and Kikuchi are arguably our best SPs. Amazing and so happy for these two

Kikuchi - 28 Ks 6 BB, 4-0, no homeruns allowed. Pretty impressive stuff from the kooch!

And Tampa loses!

That's two series losses against the two contending teams they've faced.
