Just hope Jays bounce back from this 2 game losing streak same way they did the last time. First series loss in quite some time too.

On the plus side...Yankees and O's also lost,so no change there.

Ortiz came up clutch tonight with a go ahead 3 run home run in the 9th to help the red sox win 5-3, he has to be the most clutch player ever

There's a lot of stuff leading up to Abad throwing at him but yea that's the action that caused the bat throwing garbage.

Slipped my ***.

Hitting the catcher in the head twice on his backswing (seemingly intentional) certainly doesn't make him look any better.

I don't understand the big deal with Donaldson's tag either.

Not a good weekend for Machado.

I can't believe McClendon pulling Felix…100 pitches and he pulls him. I wanted to see him go back out for the 8th and see if 1) he could break is own personal best of 15 K's and 2) see if he could make a run at 20.

Sometimes pitchers say they're done. It happened twice this season with Iwakuma - M's fans were pissed at Lloyd for yanking him, until we found out that it was Iwakuma who said he was out of gas. I think Lloyd gives his pitchers plenty of opportunity to stay in the game.

Except that isn't what happened here. This morning McClendon said it was his decision…Felix wanted to stay in, but McClendon thought the 7th inning had gassed him and he didn't want him to blow it in the 8th.
