Blue Jays Pound and Stun Yankees

I know it's been about a week since I last blogged, but I felt as though I needed a break after the crushing Montreal Canadiens vs Philadelphia Flyers Eastern Conference Finals series. However, I am back in business now and I will blog about the progress of the Toronto Blue Jays from here on out. These Jays have put together a solid season this year and lead the majors in home runs, largely because of the hero of last night's game. Two of those home runs were driven in by the surprising Jose Bautista in last night's 6-1 win over New York. He leads the majors with 18 home runs and hit a solo shot and a 2-run shot in last night's game. Edwin Encarnacion also added a solo home run to further the Jays cause. Meanwhile, starting pitcher Brett Cecil used 5 strikeouts and a number of ground-ball outs to get the win for Toronto. New York's only run came in the 6th inning by way of a Chad Moeller double and an ensuing double-play groundout. All in all, a great game for Toronto and the team should be pleased with the effort. They are now 32-24 and drop the Yankees to 34-21 in the process. I would have been able to see the entire game had it not been for thunderstorms and power outages that kept occurring throughout the night. That is one reason why this recap is short. Hopefully we will get better weather soon so that I can give you more info on the Jays games. That's all for now, however. Here is the recap for the game: Jays Win 6-1 over Yankees  Have a nice day!
