On my horse.
He's called....T-t-t-t-t-trigger
Of course.

Tough game for the Jays last night, as the Jays outhit the Giants 12 to 7 but lost 4-3. The Jays did, however, only collect two walks and three extra base hits (double by Woody, triple by Hinske, and a homer by Gomez). Now the Jays are in fifth place but only a game out of third.

  1. Want more details? How about: "Blue Jays' rally falls short" by Spencer Fordin, "Schmidt strikes a winning chord" by Rick Eymer, "Jays in last place after loss to Giants", Geoff Baker's "Schmidt proves too much for Jays", and Mike Rutsey's "Jays lose Wells".

  2. Fordin Notes: Hudson should be back any day now, Hinske won't be playing first any time soon, and the Jays discuss how and when to pitch to Bonds. Jeff Blair also discusses Hudson's injury in "Jays' Hudson close to coming off DL.

  3. Tonight's game features the 2-5 Pat Hengten for the 28-36 Blue Jays vs. the 2-6 Kirk Rueter for the 33-31 Giants. I've got Rueter on my fantasy team and he's been killing me all year, so I expect great things from the Jays. Spencer Fordin has a game preview.


Comment of the Day: It was great to see all the heartfelt comments in our Tom Cheek: Our Best Wishes thread. Toronto fans have been certainly been showing what Tom means to the Blue Jays experience. A big Batter's Box Thank You! goes out to Jerry Howarth for spreading word of our thread to a wider audience. Thanks again, Jerry!
