Happy Canada Day!

The Jays took that sentiment to heart, ending the Rays' 7-game winning streak.

Ricky Romero was masterful, shutting the world series runners-up down over 8 innings, striking out 7. Rod Barajas, Adam Lind and Scott Rolen homered for the good guys, with Rolen extending his hitting streak to... 19 games? Correct me if I'm wrong, I don't have time to check, it's Canada Day!

I imagine some Bauxites took time to head down to the Rogers Centre for the July 1 festivities. Even if it wasn't baseball-related, what did you do this Canada Day, and what do you still plan on doing? Here in the nation's capital, I took in the madness of Parliament Hill, the Byward Market and Elgin Street, checked out a free concert at the jazz festival, and am looking forward to fireworks later on.
