Ring out the bells again
Like we did when spring began

Playing out the string....

Buffalo and Dunedin won. Buffalo had a big 9-0 win while Arjun Nimmala starred in Dunedin's win. Two wins was the best showing of the week but it could have been better. New Hampshire led 2-0 in the eighth but lost 5-2. Vancouver led 8-3 in the ninth and lost. The common thread in the two losses? Walks. The Jays relievers walked eight in those two innings.

James Kaprelian started for Buffalo and gave up nine runs. Dunedin played two and each starter gave up six runs. Vancouver's starter gave up four runs in the first two innings. All of these games were lost. New Hampshire did get good pitching but lost 1-0 with the winning run scoring on a double steal. The affiliates are now 2-19 this week.

It has been a bad week on the farm. The affiliates were 0-4 on Tuesday and Thursday and 1-3 on Wednesday. Friday was another 1-3 with Dunedin having the only win. Dunedin have been trying to play two since Wednesday but each day the rains come in the afternoon, delay the start of game one and limit play to just one game.

Time for decisions to be made
Crack up in the sun
Lose it in the shade

Off to the Twin Cities.

The Jays pitchers were in a generous mood on Thursday. From giving up too many hits, to walks, balks and hit batters, they didn't put up much of a fight. Two of the affiliates outhit their opponents to no avail. All four affiliates lost.
