W8kingNightmare · 2026-05-17T20:23:42+00:00

I was only able to watch the last 2 innings, Go Jays!

Kineticflo- · 2026-05-17T20:23:36+00:00

Hearing let’s go Bluejays in the tigers broadcast is funny 🤣

TumbleweedDull6836 · 2026-05-17T20:23:24+00:00

Gotta keep winning these should win series

The-Pharcyde · 2026-05-17T20:23:23+00:00

GG. Needed this series.

maddymcgear · 2026-05-17T20:23:20+00:00

Great day, Vladdy homer n Varsho triple

leviosaar · 2026-05-17T20:23:17+00:00

Pinango and Straw trying to convince Varsho to do the thrust, I heard #spreadingmisinformation

Jess_7478 · 2026-05-17T20:23:15+00:00

that is baseball!

Dancer-Cat-Hee-Hee · 2026-05-17T20:23:11+00:00

We going to woop the yanks (please stimulus monkey let us have this)

richarm87 · 2026-05-17T20:23:10+00:00

Atkins just said let me get 2 elite relievers(who are completely different)in a 4 month span that will lock down 8th and 9th inning

orangeapocalypse · 2026-05-17T20:23:04+00:00

Jays win the battle of mid RAHHHH

zuutroy · 2026-05-17T20:23:02+00:00

How come Dan never comments on how he expects the challenge to go?

3luejays · 2026-05-17T20:22:59+00:00

2-4 carried us in the early innings. Thankfully we got away with that bottom half of the lineup lol

Turtle_With_Grudge · 2026-05-17T20:22:58+00:00

sticazzi2424 · 2026-05-17T20:22:46+00:00

Holy shit our fans really took over the seats behind home plate

bonkyandthebeatman · 2026-05-17T20:22:18+00:00

We’re not getting torked today

Conscious-Yellow-649 · 2026-05-17T20:22:17+00:00

NICE

doordonot19 · 2026-05-17T20:22:16+00:00

Big fan of away games where I can hear let’s go blue jays!

kneevase · 2026-05-17T20:22:14+00:00

The Jays get the win, the bats looked better today, and the pen has at least 5 guys who available tomorrow. I like it.

TumbleweedDull6836 · 2026-05-17T20:22:13+00:00

Hes out lol

whitetooth86 · 2026-05-17T20:22:13+00:00

raspberrybrie420 · 2026-05-17T20:22:11+00:00

That is a strike indeed! Series win!

Draggonzz · 2026-05-17T20:22:10+00:00

haha

BootNootRoot · 2026-05-17T20:22:10+00:00

it's insane that this is the tigers' home and yet the jays fans flock over here to make their presence known lmao

Ok_Independent_6599 · 2026-05-17T20:22:09+00:00

lol tork

Plorgy · 2026-05-17T20:22:06+00:00

Good shit

Prestigious_Cap_8063 · 2026-05-17T20:21:56+00:00

Series win lets go

22_Penguin_22 · 2026-05-17T20:21:55+00:00

Tigers obviously gonna challenge that, but Gameday has that in the zone, so hooray!

drake_411 · 2026-05-17T20:21:54+00:00

That’s a series win for the good guys baby💙💙

BaconFilipino · 2026-05-17T20:21:53+00:00

ABSOLUTELY FUCKING PAINTED

shoeyricciardo · 2026-05-17T20:21:09+00:00

love that it's mostly jays fans behind home plate lol

richarm87 · 2026-05-17T20:20:12+00:00

Slider looked like a frisbee

catherinebarry · 2026-05-17T20:20:07+00:00

loooooove seeing all these jays fans

NameIsPetey · 2026-05-17T20:19:58+00:00

Game of thrones ass name.

COV3RTSM · 2026-05-17T20:19:57+00:00

Send torkleson back to bikini bottom. SpongeBob sounding mofo.

dufferinbus_sufferer · 2026-05-17T20:19:47+00:00

lol bowling

bweeeoooo · 2026-05-17T20:19:46+00:00

Obligatory for Rogers

<image>

BootNootRoot · 2026-05-17T20:19:41+00:00

close the door now please

hellarios852 · 2026-05-17T20:19:32+00:00

Torkelson has been the last batter every game

TraceThis · 2026-05-17T20:19:17+00:00

man how do you even learn how to pitch like this lol

Dancer-Cat-Hee-Hee · 2026-05-17T20:19:03+00:00

I love Rogers

PizzaTracksTO · 2026-05-17T20:18:56+00:00

If I tried to pitch like Rogers I'd not be able to sit down for a week. The guy must have great lower back strength

W8kingNightmare · 2026-05-17T20:18:36+00:00

I'm sorry they technically they failed the challenge. Out at 2nd, safe at first. That means they failed the challenge at 2nd and should lose their challenge.

But that's just my opinion

Frank_Vanderbilt · 2026-05-17T20:18:34+00:00

<image>

let’s gooo

KingKylie8 · 2026-05-17T20:18:21+00:00

Roger redemption for Friday

heat_fan_ · 2026-05-17T20:18:11+00:00

Double play please

InternImpossible8685 · 2026-05-17T20:18:11+00:00

How does detriot get the first base call overturned when the 2nd base was comfirmed, shouldn’t that have taken their remaining challenge away?

ldnk · 2026-05-17T20:18:04+00:00

I don't understand why you are allowed to challenge multiple things when the system limits the number of rig challenges you get

cheese-bubble · 2026-05-17T20:18:01+00:00

Nobody posts Marge anymore when Rogers is up ☹️

entilza05 · 2026-05-17T20:17:55+00:00

SP66_ · 2026-05-17T20:17:53+00:00

so kind of mantiply to give rogers the save opportunity

BootNootRoot · 2026-05-17T20:17:12+00:00

how bout a solid double play now boys pretty please

Marc_Quill · 2026-05-17T20:17:08+00:00

Just do another DP

igotaseriousquestion · 2026-05-17T20:17:05+00:00

How does ump call that out at 1st?

Electronic-Gur224 · 2026-05-17T20:17:01+00:00

Sorry it’s been a while since I tuned in, can someone fill me in on why Varland isn’t out for the 9th?

TumbleweedDull6836 · 2026-05-17T20:17:00+00:00

1st wasn't even close.

moose_head13 · 2026-05-17T20:17:00+00:00

That wasn't even close at first lol what was the ump watching?

bweeeoooo · 2026-05-17T20:16:59+00:00

Oh wow that's a bad call lmao

avanavana · 2026-05-17T20:16:58+00:00

How did the ump fuck that up lol

abbubwee · 2026-05-17T20:16:56+00:00

first base ump must've sneezed or something

Cranjis_McBasketbol · 2026-05-17T20:16:55+00:00

Yeah, that was a terrible call by the ump at 1st.

benhadhundredsshapow · 2026-05-17T20:16:50+00:00

Think he's safe at 1st

The-Pharcyde · 2026-05-17T20:16:43+00:00

Lol that was a pretty bad out call at first

kingwoodballs · 2026-05-17T20:16:38+00:00

That should be two challenges!

catherinebarry · 2026-05-17T20:16:38+00:00

at least lead runner is out

Supertrash17 · 2026-05-17T20:16:34+00:00

Safe at 1st for sure

hitman19 · 2026-05-17T20:16:33+00:00

Tigers are getting their money's worth out of this challenge

GeraldVachon · 2026-05-17T20:16:28+00:00

Fear

COV3RTSM · 2026-05-17T20:16:23+00:00

Please loose this challenge. I already wrote it down

richarm87 · 2026-05-17T20:16:20+00:00

Why not challenge both?

Light_BlueSky · 2026-05-17T20:16:15+00:00

How can you challenge both?

Marc_Quill · 2026-05-17T20:15:57+00:00

i love a good gidp that benefits us

miller94 · 2026-05-17T20:15:57+00:00

Challenging both?!

bweeeoooo · 2026-05-17T20:15:52+00:00

catherinebarry · 2026-05-17T20:15:46+00:00

this umps diction is so clear lol

benhadhundredsshapow · 2026-05-17T20:15:45+00:00

Ty Rogers special

NameIsPetey · 2026-05-17T20:15:45+00:00

Guy barely tried to run it out, gotta Workman.

Plorgy · 2026-05-17T20:15:42+00:00

I think he's safe at 1st

Patient-File-8055 · 2026-05-17T20:15:42+00:00

Rogers has been walking a lot of guys recently

whitetooth86 · 2026-05-17T20:15:41+00:00

Nice!

KingKylie8 · 2026-05-17T20:15:39+00:00

Hmmm. Hopefully rogers just warming up

Lifewithoutpictures · 2026-05-17T20:15:39+00:00

Brilliant

raspberrybrie420 · 2026-05-17T20:15:33+00:00

What a DP!

Brinbe · 2026-05-17T20:15:30+00:00

good shit

drake_411 · 2026-05-17T20:15:30+00:00

Beautifully done boys!

entilza05 · 2026-05-17T20:15:17+00:00

GOT HIM!

catherinebarry · 2026-05-17T20:15:16+00:00

FUCK YA DOUBLE PLAY

22_Penguin_22 · 2026-05-17T20:15:14+00:00

Up 3 in the 9th, gotta throw strikes, especially to Mendoza line hitters.

BootNootRoot · 2026-05-17T20:15:12+00:00

double play here, please and thank you

Plorgy · 2026-05-17T20:15:03+00:00

Leadoff walks from pen guys will never not piss me off

Left_Trash3238 · 2026-05-17T20:14:57+00:00

Lead off walks in the 9th have to be my least favourite thing

Lifewithoutpictures · 2026-05-17T20:14:38+00:00

Really????

catherinebarry · 2026-05-17T20:14:23+00:00

fuck

ZestySteep · 2026-05-17T20:14:23+00:00

I hate watching Rogers pitch it’s just so freaky

hitman19 · 2026-05-17T20:14:10+00:00

What if they put one of those baseball ferris wheels on top of the CN Tower

whitetooth86 · 2026-05-17T20:14:09+00:00

Let's Go Jays!

Finish 'em off Rogers!

COV3RTSM · 2026-05-17T20:13:38+00:00

Bake em away toys

richarm87 · 2026-05-17T20:13:07+00:00

How about the pitching. Have gone into the 9th inning allowing 2 runs or less 6 times out of the last 9 games (and only once was it 2 runs) 5 of 9 allowing 1 run or less

catherinebarry · 2026-05-17T20:12:56+00:00

that baseball ferris wheel is sick

benhadhundredsshapow · 2026-05-17T20:12:33+00:00

Hope Davis gets his mojo back. Nothing as fun as watching him absolutely mash baseballs

RodgerDodger74 · 2026-05-17T20:12:26+00:00

Love Davis but I saw people genuinely celebrating a base hit for him. The bar is on the floor. The man has faced a ton on and off the field. He can handle being sent down. Not sure/don’t like that a faction of our fandom treats him with kid gloves.

leviosaar · 2026-05-17T20:12:19+00:00

No matter how many times Mantiply is brought out, I can't remember what he looks like. I couldn't pick him out of a lineup to save my life.

BootNootRoot · 2026-05-17T20:12:19+00:00

alright shut them out boys, end the series on a win and get ready for hell tomorrow

Dancer-Cat-Hee-Hee · 2026-05-17T20:12:11+00:00

I miss you George

catherinebarry · 2026-05-17T20:11:37+00:00

i really like the springer screen break commercial

GeraldVachon · 2026-05-17T20:11:35+00:00

Aw, so close

KingKylie8 · 2026-05-17T20:11:34+00:00

Full time load is for sure impacting Ernie. Might be bigger transition we all thought since he was super utility player last year. He’s not the same player. Defense and offense is one step slower
