-Tallet walks home a run. Tallet throws a wild pitch and a run scores. I look around the room to see if there's anything I can break that doesn't cost a lot.

-Mark Teixeira is thrown out at home. He's clearly safe, I mean out.

-Swisher strikes out and the inning is salvaged. Three-0 Yanks.


Sixth Inning

-The top of the sixth is so boring I actually start hearing my brother's pleas for food. We discuss going to Taco Bell.

-Vernon Wells socks a pitch into low orbit. Taco Bell will have to wait.


Seventh Inning

-A foul ball is grabbed by Sportsnet's own Sam Cosentino. Rance Mulliniks tells him that's the only play he's made his whole life. Words can hurt too, Rance.

-Delucci strikes out. New nickname: Deoh-for-one.

-Scutaro DESTROYS...an infield single.

-Aaron Hill responds to a near head shot from Burnett by fouling out. Take that A.J.!

 

At this point, I caved into the demands for food. I spent the next two innings driving and listening to the game on the radio. I made it back just in time to see Mariano Rivera strike out Raul Chavez. Four to two, Yanks was the final score.

So there you have it folks, from my brain to your eyes. A disappointing result from the Jays, especially since they went 1-8 with runners in scoring position. Brian Tallet was having control issues all game and ended up walking four batters.

Toronto really needs to win this series. Today was a competitive game, but sleepwalking through at-bats is not good enough.

Roy Halladay pitches tomorrow afternoon as the Jays look to even up the series. I'll spare you my thoughts though, if the Jays are losing they may not be exactly PG-13.
