I watch or listen to every game. I use to have SiriusXM until recently. They more than doubled their subscription. I was wAndering what to do when in the car. No local stations or Internet radio stations carry the Blue Jays. Sportsnet 650 is supposed to, but the games are always blacked out. Even Sportsnet 590 The Fan, based out of Toronto, and on Radio Player app, doesn't carry the games, or it can't be listened to here in BC. I kept watching that Sportsnet Now Life Coach (what an annoying guy) ads. Anyway, a light went on. Why not stream the game on Sportsnet Now? I saw the subscription fee and said, no. Turns out, after doing some research, that Sportsnet Now is free to those who subscribe to Sportsnet via Cable, whether it be Rogers, Bell, or Shaw!!!!! It works!
Anyway, watched most of the game live on my iPhone while in the car. Then when I got to Chinatown, the connection was a little spotty, but it did the trick. Secret is to turn off WiFi. I have unlimited data, so it's all good. If I were to be in one place, let's say the casino, then WiFi would be great.
The Sportsnet crew are pretty darn good at what they do. So many stories. Especially, Buck Martinez. It's like the Canucks crew. John Garret. Former players = gold. They travel with the team, so they get the inside scoop on everything.

Holy Mohammed, jesus, Buddha, Zeus, Hondaracer, Brahman, etc.............. Buck Martinez has cancer and is going in for treatment. Today being the last day............. I hope whatever it is, he comes back before the playoffs. Usually, I don't give a shit about celebs, athletes, entertainers, RS members, god bless, whatever, butt, this man gets my prayers.

I don't think I can handle Blue Jays coverage without Martinez. I will miss the, "Get up, get up, get out of here, Ball !!"
Oh no - get better Buck!
It’s funny I thought a couple of his calls this week were funny. Just a flipped score or a wrong player, NBD but maybe he’s been suffering some effect.
Holy crap............ Trevor Story just got beaned in the head by a 93 MPH pitch. Even watching it in slo-mo, it was scary. If it wasn't for the ear flap Story would have a cracked skull.
Jays up 5-1 bottom of 4th.
Wow, did not know Fenway Park opened its doors for the first time 110 years ago today! 4/20

Damn, I thought Katoh was Couteau or some other Euro name. Dude reminds me of our own baseball player, Kunoman. Born in California, Kotoh was called up last night. He's a lefty, which is a big deal against today's pitcher.
Anyway, anyone know what happened to our baseball player, Kuno? He was in college baseball and coached baseball in chinar. Really interesting youngster. Not your run of the mill, boring, RS member, gulolol.

Gausman is a beast. So "economical". 80 pitches in 8 innings. Has everybody chasin' the ball The hits the Red Soxs get are loopers and grounders. Blue Jays' defence is pretty good. That part of their game has improved quite a bit since last year.
Go, Jays, GO!!!!
What I'd give for a Bo Flow Bobblehead. And, on May 4th, a Chewbacca Messenger Bag.
Wow, that was an unexpected ending......... Romano gets it done. 3-2 win. What was with the Stanley cup between Jamie Campbell and Joe Siddall? It was there, and now it's gone.
Martinez will be missed, no doubt about it. But, Pat Tabler works well with Dan Schulman. Tabby, not too shabby.

Montoyo was playing it safe. I think it was possible. He wasn't even tired. One man on was all it took. How many pitchers in today's game get to finish the game?
Kershaw got pulled after a perfect game of 8 innings. The team went on to win 7-0. WTH? It's early in the season and with a 7-0 lead?
I get it. The game has evolved. There's talk of banning the shift. Why? All teams are in the same boat. Some teams are better at adjusting to the shift. Another rule change to happen soon is the pitch count. It speeds up the game without affecting the play, but who's in a hurry? It's only going to happen if there are runners on base. Hell, that mean Vladdy can't chat it up with the runners on first, lol.

Down 0-3, the Jays come back and Jordan Romano with 31 straight saves.......... runners on the corners with one out. 98-99 mph pitches. Strikes out the last two at plate.
Chapman hits a double wit hVladdy on first base. For a big man, he can run.
For shits and giggles, check this link out. Weird quirky ball parks..........

I want that "Bo Flo" Bobblehead!!!!
I just love how the players hug each other............ Vladdy and Bo have been friends forever. Gurriel, Springer, Manoah, every player on that team having genuine fun out there. That's what I love about this team. Doesn't matter if they win or lose. It's great to see. Refreshing is more like it. Okay, Pete Walker is a little grumpy, but someone has to be serious on that team.

I really thought the Jays were going to lose this game. Down 5-3 at the bottom of the 9th. They tie it, forcing it to extra innings. Bottom of 10th, bases loaded, new guy, Tapia hits the ball into left field. Bo Bichette tags up and that's it, WIN!
I switched over to watching the Canucks............ I did the, "Siri, Blue Jays score........ " 5-5 tie at the bottom of the 10th. well shit.......... I hit the last button on the Blue Curve remote. Something wasn't right. Fuck me, do you want to delete this recording shows up. I was watching the recording and the..... anyway, watched it live just when Tapia was up to plate. 1 out and bases loaded. WTF??????/ Anyway.............
LOL, every time I see Dan Shulman, I think of Merlin from Kingsman.

I guess we all get used to changes, but Guardians??? Atlanta still Braves. I guess as long as fans don't do the tomahawk, it's okay?
As for NY, that team is just tough as they come. Judge is a magnetic force of a man (no homo). Giancarlo isn't tiny, either. Judge isn't even the tallest player on the Yankees team at 6 ft 8 inches........... damn.
Steven Kwan just hit a homer to tie the game.
Hopefully Teoscar comes back into the lineup soon.
I saw that homer where dude gives the ball to the little kid. So nice to see shit like that. Unlike the messed up fans at Yankee Stadium. The incident where fans started pelting the other team with beer cans and garbage. No class...........

Cot Dam............. got home just in time to watch the baseball game. I turned on the sound system before I turned on the screen............. all of a sudden I hear a whole bunch of asian women screaming. I had the volume quite high. Neighbours probably thought I was watching some asian p0rn. Fuck me......... the baseball game was postponed due to bad weather. Sportsnet in place of the baseball game had women's curling on. Korean chicks yelling in unison............ kind of kinky. Anyway...................... lesson learned. TV on first, then sound system, gulolol.
Gotta love curling............
Hurry, hurry, hard........... You're on it!!! You're on it!

The blatant mishap was corrected in the baseball game that followed, where the score was replaced with the current odds while the commentary alternated between betting strategies and talk about all the luxuries you could buy with a nice windfall.

Hazel gets the Gatorade shower. Everybody saw it coming. It was total bukkake. She was in her red dress, too. Interviewing Bo Bichette. Both got it good. Guerrero Jr. is the master. Snuck up and did it perfectly. Hazel goes, “I need a new job.” I feel her………. I mean, I feel for her.
On a side note Manoah, the gentle giant so wanted to pitch the 9th inning and he could have done it. No reason to take unnecessary chances. I want to see the Jays sweep the series. It’ll be the first of the season.

They keep on saying, "It's too early to panic." It's time to panic, IMHO. Starters are doing fine, but hell, pull them when the pitch count goes up. Bull Pen not doing great. So many runners stranded. Oh well................ this is how the cookie crumbles.

Series opener today against LA Angels/ Hyun Jin Ryu vs Shohei Ohtani.
Jays are coming off an 8-1 win over the Cardinals. Bats finally coming alive........... or just a blip? The season hasn't exactly been going well, so far.
It's in LA, so game time is 6:38.
