You Couldn't Live With Me So You Moved To Brooklyn: 9/3 Game Thread, Jays at Yankees

Toronto Blue Jays at New York Yankees, Sep 3, 2010 1:05 PM EDT





The Jays kick off a 3-game series today in New York, with Brandon Morrow facing off against Ivan Nova.  Yunel Escobar continues to miss time, with Mike McCoy filling in at shortstop and leading off.  Travis Snider mans left field and bats second.  Lyle Overbay is back in the lineup, shifting Adam Lind back to DH.   And Johnny Mac gets the start at short with Edwin Encarnacion out, while Jose Molina catches the Morrow start, as usual. That's if the game happens, though - it's free and clear here in DC but NY is far closer to Earl. 

Tom had a great post this morning so I don't want to take up too much space.  Here you go.  Title from Jesse Malin's song "Brooklyn."

This line up pleases me

(Well, having JPA catch Morrow so he could throw to a different catcher at least once to see how he does wouldn’t hurt)

Ball.

Heck, I'd take Audio coverage

my local radio doesn’t do Weekday day games. They don’t interrupt the regularly schedualled programming…

Team 1410

Sometimes Team 1410 in Vancouver will carry the games and they have an audio feed…not sure about day games though…worth a try

Vancouver is a little far from Kitchener

Wow, Life is Perfect

I’m getting married in next Friday, and flying out from Toronto for honeymoon early Sunday morning. The future wife just asked if we wanted to go see the Jay-Rays game on Saturday afternoon as a start to the honeymoon.

I found the perfect girl.

from the replay

it looked like Bautista could’ve potentially caught the ball. Can someone who saw it comment on that?

by Nadia on Sep 3, 2010 1:35 PM EDT reply actions  

I am also enjoying

The commercials in spanish

I really wanted to hear what they were going to say about Morrow

There She Gooooooes!

by Rugged Rock on Sep 3, 2010 1:45 PM EDT up reply actions  

According to pitch fx, Morrow's only hitting 92 with the fastball

Maybe just an off day, or maybe the fact that this is his last start has gotten to his head. Although if that was the case you would think he’d just be letting it go as hard as he can today…

by shuswapslugger on Sep 3, 2010 1:55 PM EDT reply actions  

Splitters?

I’ve got Gameday up….Does Morrow usually throw this many Splitters?

by TrevorFries on Sep 3, 2010 2:06 PM EDT reply actions  

I don't think he throws a splitter

nor does Fangraphs. Maybe they are just reading a slower-than-usual fastball as a splitter

If morrow can pull it together

This game is still well within reach.

by Nadia on Sep 3, 2010 2:28 PM EDT via mobile reply actions  

Another start

Morrow only threw 71 pitches, could this mean he could get another start? A chance to finish on a high note?

by Nadia on Sep 3, 2010 2:34 PM EDT via mobile reply actions  

either that or he’s hurting

by TrevorFries on Sep 3, 2010 2:34 PM EDT up reply actions  

Home run tally

Questions for you enlightened folks…

How many dingers do we have this year (including Snider’s today)?
What is the Jays’ record for most in a season?
What is the MLB record for most in a season?
What is the most we’ve hit in a month this year?

Bluebird Banter bonus points to anyone with the answers.

Nice

Just left to make some lunch, and come back to see we scored a couple.

When Tallet's on...

He seems to be good for 2 innings max…asking for anything more from him is just asking for trouble…

Come on, Rook. Show us that million-dollar arm, 'cause I got a good idea about that five-cent head of yours.

He was wild and had lower velocity then normal

Why is it that 9 out of 10 commercials...

on the FAN590 include the sound of babies screaming?

So when the commercials are over it makes the programming seem a lot better by comparison.
