Two hits, two runs.  Game time:  One hour & 50 minutes. 

Gotta love the Buerhle / Halladay matchup.

With the win last night Halladay reached 100 wins with the Blue Jays.  Here's the Blue Jays win leaders as found at baseball-reference.com:

Rank	Player		W		IP
1.	Dave Stieb		175		2873.0
2.	Jim Clancy		128		2204.7
3.	Jimmy Key		116		1695.7
4.	Pat Hentgen		107		1636.0
5.	Roy Halladay		100		1401.0
6.	David Wells		84		1148.7
7.	Juan Guzman		76		1215.7

Why did I include the top 7?  Because I have an irrational devotion to Juan Guzman!

A best guess would have Halladay moving past Hentgen this year, Jimmy Key next season and Jim Clancy in 2009.  Dave Steib will be tougher to catch.  I imagine it'll take at least 5 seasons.  I'd say it's probably a 50/50 shot at this point.

Burnett vs. Vazquez tonight.
