Jays now up 4-0 in the 2nd.

Even with Price's struggles I would put the chances of Texas winning a game five in that building at slim and none.

I completely agree Vic. Both KC & the Jays came up big today & going back to there own parks gives them a definite edge.

...if it goes back to Toronto, the Jays win.

...if it goes back to KC, Royals win.

 

[Messiah717]

I guess no Price in game 5. Comes in for relief duty and gets knocked around again. What a playoff dud he is.

 

[Rick2583]

He gave up 3 runs on 6 hits in only 3 innings & he gets a win. remarkable.

 

[yankeesince59]

...^^^ I know they have Strohman scheduled for game 5 but I was still a little surprised they brought in Price.

 

[yankeesince59]

He gave up 3 runs on 6 hits in only 3 innings & he gets a win. remarkable.

...almost as bad as Harris coming out of the pen for Houston, pitching 2/3 of an inning, giving 4 runs (3 earned), but still gets credited with a "Hold".

^^^I know how much you love these stats.

 

[Rick2583]

Don't mean to sound redundant (HELL! yes I do) but they seriously have to do away with the hold. Its the dumbest stat in all of baseball. And its not like they've never stopped using stats before, Remember when they started keeping track of GWH (Game winning hits) that stat lasted what all of 2 maybe 3 years? Get rid of the hold.

 

[Rick2583]

Both starting pitchers in the Cub (Arrieta) & Cardinals (Wacha) game, got knocked around tonight.

 

[Rick2583]

Cubs with 6 HRs tonight about to go up 2 games to 1 on the Cardinals. 8-4 heading to the 9th inning.
