Target Field | Minneapolis, MN

Trent Thornton (0-1, 4.61, 1.24) vs. Jake Odorizzi (0-2, 6.35, 1.15)


PREAMBLE: 

The Toronto Blue Jays have won the first two games of this four-game series and they look to secure their first series win of the season in tonight's third game.  The first two games have been rather exciting with late comebacks coming after Teoscar base-running goofs.

Will history repeat itself with another Teoscar brain freeze and a corresponding big hit?  Stay tuned!

Trent Thornton looks to get back on the right track as he faces off against Jake Odorizzi on the mound.


PHILOSOPHY FUN:

There's a torn jersey on the floor of the Blue Jays clubhouse.
Charlie: Brito?  A word with you.
Socrates comes over.
Charlie:  Euripides?
Socrates:  I've got a lot on my Plato.
Charlie:  That'll leave a Marx.
Socrates:  Sorry, things got out of Kant-rol.
Charlie:  Thanks for giving me a Thoreau explanation.


NOTES:

Well, it's finally happened....
