Blue Jays outscored, out-hited the Dodgers and made 0 errors to La's 3. How the fuck did they lose?
>>151761971They don't have the Japanese samurai warrior gene.
>>151761971Atrocious baserunning, there were moments one would ask himself if the jays players are actually pro. If they didnt do amateurish baserunning mistakes this series would be done in 5 games
>>151762103This and their bad late inning relief corps. Granted they weren't awful but they still play a role as to why the Blue Jays lost the series.

>>151761971It's a bit like tennis in that certain points/runs are more important than others.
Mostly because they had to face Yamamoto three times. But also the baserunning was comically bad. And finally Schneiders lineup decisions, both pregame and in game. All of the pinch running and pinch hitting of course that left them depleted in games 3 and 7, but also Clement really should have been batting second the whole series
>>151762216I dont understand why he didnt give Guerrero the 2nd spot in so many games. There was a game Lukes was the final out. I get why not the 1st spot, but why would he be behind the 2nd?
>>151761971Dodgers won the electoral vote
If you win by 1 run or 10 it doesn't matter
>>151761971Canadians need to watch anime more.
>>151762258I kind of agree but with Guerrero Jr. at #2 the lineup would be righty, righty, righty with springer and bichette at 1 and 3
>>151762356Canadians are a bunch of fucking retarded losers
>>151762103the springer gaffe in the 1st was mind boggling for a dude who's been in multiple WS
Strange how a team that's so good on defense is so bad at baserunning. You'd think fundamentals like that would go hand in hand.
>>15176197111 of those runs were in game 1. They don't carry over to the next game. Win by 1 or win by 10, it's just a win.
>>151761971superior nipponese pitching
>>151762103>>151762130>>151762634the bo guy getting picked off when he thought it was walk literally cost them an entire game
>>151763162I think this was the most excusable one because he saw Varsho taking off his sliding mitt, honestly i blame Varsho way more than Bo for that. But yes that was crucial but it was one among dozen of wtf baserunning moments
>>151764188yeah, but that was the game that went 18 innings before a walk off homerun. if he didn't get picked off the next batter got a hit he would have likely scored and they would have won in 9
>>151763162based umpies win again
>>151761971In Canada you win when your enemies win, so they actually won.
