Jays Roasted by Mariners, Fall Behind 0-2 in ALCS
Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 10-3 loss vs. the Mariners in Game 2 of the ALCS. They take your calls and texts, and get right to the offence - where have the bats gone after such a successful ALDS? Is it all Mariners pitching, or has the team failed to make meaningful in-game adjustments? Is there a different configuration of the batting order that might lead to more productivity? They discuss the Mariners bats bombing the Jays' bullpen, Trey Yesavage with a rough second playoff outing, and also look ahead to the next few games that will see Shane Bieber and possibly Max Scherzer take the mound in Seattle. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
