Game 75: The True North Strong and Free

Come to the Dome today and say what will finally, probably, be a final au revoir to les Expos. Montreal's best chance of avoiding a sweep comes today, as staff ace Livan Hernandez takes the hill against Pat Hentgen. The Jays have suffered some terrible luck this year, but they've also suffered from some terrible performances. As Canada Day approaches, Pat Hentgen is 2-7 with a 5.84 ERA, 15 HRs allowed in just 74 innings, and more walks than strikeouts in barely more than 5 innings a start. It seems fair to say, at this point in the season, that even with modest expectations, Hentgen has been a bust at $2.2 million. It's too bad his Jay career is winding down this way, so root for him to reach back and find some glory this afternoon.
