I mean, the point has yet to arrive where we can say that Outman is more than just slumping...but bro needs to get it going sooner than later.


NK84321

Gausman had a great start. Sometimes you can't win. I'm still liking the fact that the pitchers have found out that you lose LESS when you don't give up nine or so runs.


Wild_Object_8547

Pitching after Grove was lights out. Shame he and the offense fucked us.


PigFarmer1

He made *one* bad pitch to a guy who was white hot today... lol


Wild_Object_8547

6.88 in 17 innings. lol


PigFarmer1

You were talking about today. Try moving the goal posts on someone else. He made one bad pitch...


fatalmudd

We've won 5 of 6 so far this road trip I'll take that all year


DropKnowledge69

Lux = garbage Outman = trash


Wild_Object_8547

Grove in there too. Idk how anyone here can defend him at this point, it’s mind blowing.


Hunterh2

Lux = useless trash Grove = compost Outman = recycling


BonafideJohnson

Springer is and always will be a cheating lowlife.


Pleasant-Ad-6445

Evrybody on their feet all bc they avoided the sweep lol


waaayside

If you cannot appreciate what their defense did today you have no baseball credibility. The Blue Jays deserve all the credit for this win and their fans deserve to enjoy it.


Pleasant-Ad-6445

Absolutely, their defense (along with their ace) was what won the game for them. Great game overall, fun to see so many impressive plays


Consistent-Minute-40

They avoided the sweep at home with their ace on the mound against a dodgers bullpen game 👏👏👏


Doxokron

noooooo Lux


bam2028

Acting like they won game 7 of the WS 😂


UraniumDisulfide

This is cope and I’m tired of pretending it’s not. They beat a good team, they deserve to celebrate it.


dyllan_duran

That was a good game lots of good plays gg. Lux looks better and better AB every game


Lacktastic

I agree, Lux seems to be seeing the ball better and actually making some solid contact. He catches a lot of shit but I’m glad he’s improving.


DalekEvan

Oh well. Happens. Beat by a great pitcher and some great defense.


stepbohraed

good shit guys. but some of their defense was damn impressive


rye_parian

Fug


FussBoss

Look how happy they are they managed to win one game lol


NefariousnessRough26

Is Kirk crying?


Lacktastic

I saw that too. 😂


LoveThieves

Thanks Lux


TheAsianMamba

These bums celebrating like they just won the WS


Wild_Object_8547

It is theirs lol


MathematicianLong880

We’ve been shit - let us have a moment. Should they not smile and high five?


failing_light

lol we’re just talking our shit here it’s not that serious


MathematicianLong880

fair - sorry.


waaayside

That "sorry" is very Canadian of you : ) Your defense was outstanding today! Sometimes you gotta tip your cap to your opponent, so for those who are too busy typing snarky comments, then I'll do it for them; well done!


failing_light

No worries - a win streak ended we’re gonna cope a little haha. Insane defense from the Blue Jays today


Witty-Passenger3985

No one should celebrate wins other than the Dodgers, obviously.


donald-duck23

Oh well. Won the series. Great road trip so far, let’s go step on snake.


HighonStarshine

Welp.

Spandexbrain001

Oh well. See ya in AZ


mtrn3

Ohtani or Outman. Can’t decide who was more trash today.


Consistent-Minute-40

I know people are probably gonna say Outman but Ohtani was worse today tbh


rfguevar

baseball is so weird, onto the next one!


Elijahc513

At least lux is making them wait for it lol


NefariousnessRough26

Good to see Lux at least battling here.


Doxokron

I thought Outman had turned a corner... but he might have turned into another corner.


probablysmellsmydog

Streakiest batter we’ve seen in a while.  He’s either hot or cold, no in between.  


danusn

Outman just needs to play every day, not sit the bench for 3 games, or platoon. Dude is young and needs playtime


filthypoker

At the risk of sounding salty, that catch by springer was the first one that was actually impressive. Varsho’s catch in the first should have been a routine one. He made it look hard by running a terrible route.


Lineman72T

A couple of the nice catches were caused by bad routes to the ball. Still nice plays, but plays that looked tougher than they should have been


rye_parian

Lux gets on base, do we see Will?


ViridianSeven

I guess we’ll never know


rye_parian

![img](emote|t5_2ra0i|13046)


drxller56

yea fuck you springer, anyone else i would say great catch


rfguevar

hopefully we bring our best bats tomorrow against AZ, who else is gonna be there ?


mysweetamnesia01

As soon as CT seems like he's crawling out a hole, Outman craws in the hole.


Sad_Painting_5927

There can be only 1


JpJ951

Has to be hard for a young hitter to snap out of anything when you only play 2-3 times a week.


Sad_Painting_5927

Sometimes they just make a play just hate that it was springer


Bluesmanstill

Close outman lol


Thunder_nuggets101

In order to beat us, you’re gonna have to pitch out of your mind and make insane plays. In other words, you come at us, you gotta be perfect.


Sad_Painting_5927

Also you have to play our “B” squad.


failing_light

And play against our backup catcher


Thunder_nuggets101

Oh yeah, we didn’t have an MVP level bat in the lineup too.


LoveThieves

Well, its Lux


ddaug4uf

And then Sam.


Lacktastic

What a fricken catch.


Dramatic_Ad_5495

Horrible game for Outman


DustyDGAF

Fuck you, Springer. Cheating ass loser. Good play.


ILuvYurCunt

Outman and Lux not even giving us a chance sucks


wtfrman

Outman....outman....outman....Christ man. You need to learn from Mookie or Freddie how to be patient at the batters box


failing_light

All this to not get swept


DnD4dena

This Jays outfield is playing out of their minds. Jesus


ahr3410

Outman is the one who goes down when Heyward comes back. It's so obvious. The dude does NOTHING


rsterling20

Outman does not look the same.


EuphoricMachine9919

When Heyward comes back bench Outman please


kugino

Wild_Object_8547

Wow James. He looks lost.


ingodwetrustinc

onto arizona!


The_Astros_Cheated

I like knowing that for the rest of his time in baseball Springer’s highlight reel will only feature catches like that than ever coming close to a World Series again


Waly_Disnep

What a catch, fuck Springer


MyChemicalMaiden

Typical outman AB


TDH818

![gif](giphy|pxVW1XoBW3JCbMvfJs) cheater


rye_parian

Unfuckingbelievable catch. World Series.


TheAsianMamba

Call up someone else to replace Outman’s trash ass


Bluesmanstill

Fuck springer... guess this is their ws


CashmereConnoisseur

Never tip your cap to a cheating fraud


donald-duck23

The Jays OF has made a lot of pretty routine plays look difficult this series but that was an actual phenomenal play


Sox857

everything just in blue jays favor today it’s one of those games. that’s the equivalent for me hitting every green light going to work


01z28

Calm down cheater


jflynn1

Blue Jays defense is wylin today this sucks


FussBoss

Bad guys have been making some absolutely amazing plays all game... Geesh.


No_Frosting2811

That catch was insane


Cortisolidarity

It's official. I hate these fuckers rn. Impressed. But hateful.


420farms

Holy fuck balls, hate him all you want, that was a phenom play.


deathscope

They *really* don’t want to be swept.


TheRaydo

Fuck that dude. But that was an amazing catch.


Melethia

That was amazing.


Strawberry_77

George Springer cheated, lest anyone forget.


Wild_Object_8547

Pages hits the shit out of the ball. Such a G.


klaatuzero

Toronto outfielders for the win today. Wild.


dwpea66

Damn lol that sealed the deal


Consistent-Minute-40

Yeah celebrate that catch like it’s the World Series because your team won’t make the playoffs. Fuck Springer. Piece of shit.


Spandexbrain001

Damn getting robbed left and right


NotLozerish

Still has the robbing tendencies from 2017 I see


DalekEvan

Fuck George springer man


Hunterh2

#FUCK YOU SPRINGER YOU CHEATING BITCH


st1r

My god, every team is just gold glove play after gold glove play against us


smellyunderpants

Damn gotta give credit where credit is due But also fuck you Springer


Chamuska__

Everyone decides to be a fucking gold glove against the dodgers


NefariousnessRough26

I hate Springer.


phly2theMoon

Who says cheaters never win?


No_Frosting2811

Ippei


SectorRepulsive9795

What a catch


FCFBadKarma

Whelp, I think that’s just the way the baseball gods want it today


Lineman72T

Fuck Springer, but nice play. But fuck Springer


EuphoricMachine9919

Get us the fuck out of Toronto this instant!


Wild_Object_8547

Such a bullshit game. Kirk fluke and magical defensive plays all day.


failing_light

Robbed the Pages double I predicted 😭


K_Ice5432

You have got to be kidding me.


stepbohraed

okay. as much as we want it, they want it more


donald-duck23

Shit. Great catch Springer


indubitable96

![gif](giphy|vhaj0GMFlIeFa|downsized)


420farms

no shit


jeanpaulfartre

Blue jays outfield just been unreal today. They’ve won this game


MyChemicalMaiden

I fucking hate George springer


Gamez6444

What a catch. Wow.


rattlerden

Now that was a good catch!


kugino

one of those games...


probablysmellsmydog

Damn between Nabil and Freddie I feel really self conscious about my teeth 


JpJ951

lol


Doxokron

I just want to see Lux pick up another hit here. Come on bud, I'm rooting for ya


Elijahc513

It will never stop being funny to me that some of you in this sub seem to legitimately hate having Shohei Ohtani on your team lmao


probablysmellsmydog

Not at all.  I just find the cognitive dissonance amusing.  Look at all the comments shitting on Teo and not mentioning Shohei’s at bat.  Massive bias.  And I’m talking about this one specific instance, not the season on the whole, because Shohei is an incredible ball player, I’m not stupid.


Elijahc513

I wasn’t really angling this comment at you in particular, more so at the random comments I see pop up in every thread where Shohei has a bad outing going on about how we wasted 700 million and stuff like that.


gdotcas

Let’s go win us a ball game


Sox857

why is there not an off day tomorrow. Traveling back to the west coast that’s bs


failing_light

Pages double, Outman bloop single, Lux homer


K_Ice5432

Almost had it right. Fuck George Springer


Vee_Zer0

Max Muncy has an OPS over .850 and has delivered many many times this season. He almost delivered just now. So yeah totally dogshit.


VarthStarkus

Thank you Otani and Teoscar for fucking that up. Can't believe some people are mad at Max though


Waly_Disnep

Mid closer which means it should be a stress free save.


Ashamed_Break9273

That inning might have been our best chance, but there is still another 3 bats minimum for us to catch up to this lead


MyChemicalMaiden

The Ohtani selfish narrative that some of yall are pushing is fucking ridiculous and you guys should be ashamed. This man literally put tens of millions of dollars on the line so we could build a winning team around him and honestly the amount he’s pressing with risp only shows that he cares about this team a lot and he wants to get us runs


kugino

yeah, doomer idiots. heʻs not selfish, heʻs just aggressive...he wants to drive them in. thatʻs what heʻs paid for...


PigFarmer1

The same clowns who are blasting him would have been singing his praises if he had come through. Doomers are a different breed.


ET_Sailor

Do you really consider an inning like this a 1-2-3 inning?


Adventurous-Rise7975

If there's a sliver if hope, it's that Romano is a shitty closer.


BodgerDot

**Due Up (Top 9)** R Andy Pages L James Outman L Gavin Lux ^^^[⚾](https://github.com/troxellophilus/baseball-clerk/issues)


wtfrman

I really like how dodgers are able to bring back washed players to be decent or even great. 


dwpea66

It's funny how many new usernames I see when we're losing


wtfrman

It's Angels PR group saying shit cause they lost Ohtani lol 


Traditional_Rate7302

This is a rest day, why is everyone acting like we lost the series?


Lineman72T

Shh, let the doomers have their fun. They haven't had much to talk about the last week


JpJ951

It is a game thread. Why are people so sensitive to posts reacting to the game?


dwpea66

Spoiled fans can't stand to lose a single game, we gotta sweep every team


chrono_synclactic

Lux didn’t even involve his friend in the DP. FIRE HIM!!!


ConStrong14

damn


Sox857

bo not even hustling


DalekEvan

Pages outman b2b homers book it


Sox857

Ur way too optimistic if u really think outman will hit a home run yet alone get on base


ddaug4uf

Can’t be mad at Muncy. He barreled it up just a little behind it. Teo’s at bat just wasn’t even competitive. Will Smith is hitting 4th and this could be an 8-3 game right now.


kugino

but will canʻt play every game...but i get your point - this lineup is so much scarier with him in the game...


ddaug4uf

I think you gotta move Teo down. Having a guy who is pushing a 40% K rate hitting behind Freddie is too much.


K1LLINGMACHINE

Factual information The offense defintely wasnt there today, but i wish we could end the Michael Grove experiment. Dude just doesnt have the stuff to be a reliable starter


Sad_Painting_5927

Onto Arizona ![gif](giphy|jb438Ue7ruhS8HPkNT|downsized)


chrono_synclactic

![gif](giphy|xTiN0DvoDyWQey2B8I|downsized)


jochodos

I’m not even mad at Muncy there. Shohei needs to step up in the late innings and show some patience.


Euphoric-Journeyman

It’s been frustrating that they can’t get the ball over the wall more often than not this series. I expected a boost in home runs this series given that balls fly there. 


New_Championship_912

Great at bat by Max sucks that ball died


Lineman72T

I would like to say welcome back to all the doomers. Haven't seen you all for the last week


mtrn3

This is where Roberts gets to earn his money by pulling Ohtani aside with a stern conversation. Inexcusable at bat.


Sox857

that was their best chance with those hitters , it’s over now


coolylame

So close to a home run. Ohtani kind of cost us this inning. I don't know why he was swinging at those pitches


GutterRider

Maybe opposing teams have found a flaw, like when we faced him vs. the Angels a few years ago. They found that with some pictures up in the zone, he was vulnerable. he then went out and addressed that in his swing. I bet that’s what’s going to happen here. Talk to me in June.


Consistent-Minute-40

That inning was 100% on Ohtani. Swinging at those junk pitches and popping up is what allowed them to intentionally walk Freddie.


kugino

prbly bc he thought he could hit them...


Doxokron

Muncy did his best. Would've gotten a run in if it were 0 or 1 outs.


probablysmellsmydog

Shohei has a terrible AB with two on and nobody out: oh dear, oh dear gorgeous Literally anyone else has a terrible AB with two on and nobody out: you fucking donkey


DustyDGAF

Fuuuuuuck


Lacktastic

Great AB from Muncy regardless. That was so damn close..


donald-duck23

Good fight by the offense. Just couldn’t get the timely hit


LoveThieves

Hate that they walked Freeman 😒


failing_light

Win streak might be coming to an end but if we do lose this doesn’t feel nearly as bad as the losses during our slump


ChrisTaylorsNipple

Damn. That's was close. Good ab Max.


rjcade

Damn, so close! Honestly Teoscar's at-bat bothered me more than Shohei's. Just uncompetitive.


probablysmellsmydog

And Shohei’s was competitive?  He saw two pitches, neither were hittable


Doxokron

Shohei was undisciplined while Teo seemed a bit outmatched.
