Is it just me, or do the Blue Jays seem to be playing more "small ball" compared to previous years? They've been making more stolen base attempts and bunting more. Blue Jays bunting? What?? Despite what most Jays fans might think about Ricciardi and Gibbons, kudos should go out to them for sticking to their guns and doing what they said they were going to do. In fact, it was that small ball (bunt and sac fly) that directly led to an extra-inning run today which sealed their victory. If they keep this up, we might actually be seeing some meaningful games come September. Maybe.
On another note, B.J. Ryan is back and promptly earned a save. What was impressive is that he earned it despite allowing a lead-off triple. But he came back to retire the side and strand the runner at third. No strikeouts yet, but they will come soon enough.
