Have ticket sales went up since due to the recent acquisitions?

Ya. That's exactly why tomorrows game is sold out(Price making Jays debut), and it's a holiday too,so afternoon holiday game with Price pitching, sold out!

Once Jays prove they're in serious contention for playoffs,even more people will go. Cause right now,I'm sure people are in the "I'll believe the hype when they live up to it" phase, which is understandable for a team that hasn't made playoffs in 20+ years,despite having some of top players at their respective positions during that 20+ year timespan.

To back this up, if the Jays can continue to win and show themselves as a viable contender rather than a sheep in wolf's clothing we will start seeing crowds regularly over 30 thousand and maybe sold out to capacity i'd say as early as the tail end of this home stand.

Addison Russell goes way deep. Love the swing tweak, it's paying off big time for him.

That will be a fun game to watch and any chance to watch Kershaw live is an opportunity worth seeking.

It sucks about Sandberg as I've mad respect for the guy. I guess, like Allan Trammell they just have too much of a high bar for players and are too old school to bend a bit for the realities of the time.

I was way off on that Thursday pitching matchup. I forgot the Phillies have an off day tomorrow. Looks like David Buchanan vs. Zack Greinke.

They put the warning on pitchers way too early in this game and the Royals tried to be little punks just now....Jose made 'em pay!

LOL! Wolf with the worst umpire performance I've seen in decades. What in the **** is going on with this clown?

KC trying to fight again, what a shock.

Such a chicken**** move by the ump throwing Sanchez out. You can't throw him out there and not throw Madson out the inning prior.

Tim Wolf just let the game get away from him. If one of the KC pitchers were thrown out for going in on the Jays hitters this wouldn't be an issue so much.

Oh and I like the Royals but they're a bunch of pricks.

Add that and his balls and strikes seem determined by emotion today (for both teams)—unless he is literally blind.

Jays-royals game!!!!!! What stupid umpire. Pathetic! Donaldson/tulo got hit. Donaldson almost hit 2 more times. But somehow jays get ejections!?! And stupid strikezones

Exactly, how can you throw one out but not the other? Isn't that why warnings are issued? What's the point then?
