Blue Jays' Split Squad Beats Canada Juniors 17-3

The BlowJays keeping it classy by putting up 10 runs after the 5th inning against the Canada Juniors team.

Toronto is great at beating up on kids, too bad their hockey team can't beat up on ANYBODY.

jonumberone · 03-31-2015, 07:00 AM

I can't believe opening day is less than a week away.
It's still so cold here.
It's really hard to think about baseball!

The Poet · 03-31-2015, 07:14 AM

Hell, Dom, it got within a sac fly of 50 yesterday. Let's play two!

Wharf Rat · 04-05-2015, 04:37 PM

Opening Day! Woo Hoo! What to smoke??? Go Cards!

04-05-2015, 10:04 PM

Cards looking pretty good tonight.

icehog3 · 04-05-2015, 10:13 PM

Better than the Cubs anyway.

04-05-2015, 10:47 PM

Uh, anyone go to the game tonight at Wrigley? Apparently fans were pissing against the walls and pissing in cups on the concourse due to long lines for the bathrooms.

icehog3 · 04-05-2015, 10:54 PM

Stay classy, Cubs fans!

My cousin went, I'll ask her about that when I talk to her tomorrow.

Let me know Tom. How do grown ass men and women just decide to piss out on the concourse? I mean come on, walk to a bar or restaurant close to the park. I'm hoping what I'm hearing isn't true just for the sake of my friends that are Cub fans.

icehog3 · 04-05-2015, 11:10 PM

I am betting it wasn't women, but who knows. Hopefully it was just a couple/few drunken asswipes, Nate.

The Poet · 04-06-2015, 04:25 AM

They should have moved the games elsewhere until renovations were completed.

Yankee Stadium?

That's the OLD Yankee Stadium, which is now three youth sandlot fields. That should serve the historically hapless Cubbies.

Unfortunately the Wrigley construction is a long ways from being complete, si I don't think Cellular is the answer. That and all those cars with Cubs bumper stickers getting vandalized....

The Poet · 04-06-2015, 12:10 PM

Now that was interesting. Predictions were that the crowd's response to A-Rod's return to Yankee Stadium would be 50/50 mixed cheers and boos. But when the line-up was announced, Alex got, in the words of John Sterling, "a phenomenal reception." Suzyn Waldman speculated that the fans were saying he'd paid his dues, so welcome back . . . which would change with his first strike-out. John opined the fans were telling the media that he's one of our players, so leave him alone.

I'd be surprised if he does better than 15 and 70 this year, and not so if he does worse, yet still it is interesting for all baseball fans, for whatever reasons . . . even those who hate his guts.

AdamJoshua · 04-06-2015, 03:02 PM

Red Sox opening the season against the NL... lame.

Dustin P starting the season with a homer to left, I'll take it.

The Poet · 04-06-2015, 03:06 PM

Yankees played at Shea two seasons, '74-'75, while the original House That Ruth Built was being renovated. Many Yankee fans may not bother to hate the Mets, but do you really think Pinstripes in Flushing are more welcomed than Cubbies on the South Side?

I do not, Thomas. But I think the Cubs relaized that the construction was longer term than they thought after the 2015 schedule was published, so I am guessing they and their fans are SOL this year.

On the bright side, Tigers win 4-0 on their opening day, Price with 8.2 shouout innings.

I agree.
