I didn’t have a good feeling about this game even though the Jays were in the lead heading into the 9th. And I’m sad, cause I feel like overall, the Jays deserved to be the champs.
Heart of a Champion. Yamamoto was a deserving MVP. Reminded me a bit of Madison Bumgarner.
Final Tallies Yamamoto 17 2/3 3 wins 0 losses, 1.02 ERA 10 hits 2 earned runs 15 strike outs 2 walks.
Bumgarner 21 innings 2 wins, 0 losses 1 save, 0.43 ERA 9 hits one earned run 17 strike outs 1 walk.
I doubted I'd ever see the likes of that one again. But by golly Yamamoto came close.
I can't say he lost the series because well we don't know whether Springer would have gotten an out or not too but he took the bat out of Springer's hands there. He had absolutely nothing to gain by taking that lead either.
For all you folks in LA who attend LAUSD… you do NOT have the day off tomorrow. You will be playing hooky and risking attendance issues if you attend tomorrow’s parade.
