#137 - Tampa Bay Rays (73-63) at Toronto Blue Jays (62-74)



Monday, September 3, 2018 | 7:07 pm
Rogers Centre | Toronto, Ontario

Ryne Stanek (2-3, 2.77, 1.07) vs. Marcus Stroman (4-8, 5.27, 1.44)


PREAMBLE:

After winning the rubber match of their series in Miami, the Blue Jays flew home to face another Florida-based team, the Tampa Bay Rays.  This is the first of ten games between the two AL East rivals in September.  Get ready for tons of bullpenning and bullshit BABIPs from the Rays that will make you rip every last strand of hair from your head.

Marcus Stroman comes off the DL to play a game of will-it-or-won't-it with the blister on his finger.  He faces Ryne Stanek in this matchup.


NOTES:

Missed mentioning this yesterday:
It's about time the Jays got another no-hitter, huh?

Cheesy shit at Checkpoint Charlie, but hey it's an important site in history.  My Airbnb is in the background, right side.
