Today's POTD empties out the bag of Jays and Yankees photos for 2011.

Brandon Morrow working his mojo at the Dome to the tune of eight shutout innings and his 10th victory of the season.


Edwin Encarnacion is thrown out trying to steal second base after being tagged out by Yankees shortstop Ramiro Peña in the second inning.

Like Encarnacion, Kelly Johnson reached base on a walk in the second inning and is chased back to first after a throw from Freddy Garcia to first baseman Eric Chavez.

Yankees catcher Russell Martin comes up gunning in front of Colby Rasmus as Johnson tries his luck in stealing second.

Peña gets ready to receive Martin's throw and it appears to be time to get Johnson.

Peña tries to get the tag down as Johnson tries to reach for second base with his left leg.

Somehow, Johnson manages to beat the tag and steals his 15th base of the season.  Good call, blue!  Unfortunately, Johnson did not score as Rasmus fouled out to third to end the inning.

José Bautista tries to square one up in the fourth inning.  He would pop out to short but did have a hit and a walk for a 1-for-3 day at the dish.

Yankees center fielder Brett Gardner lands on the warning track in front of the Nikon banner after leaping in vain to snag Adam Lind's solo home run in the fourth inning.

Martin pulls back the bat after showing bunt on a Morrow offering in the fifth inning.  The Canadian backstop would later strike out but did get one of the five Yankee hits on the day in a 3-0 Jays win.


The next episode of POTD goes to the birds!  Thanks for watching!
