Blue Jays



There was a controversy during the game tonight.  The Blue Jays were on the brink of elimination.  They had to win the game to stay alive.  With score tied late in the game, the Texas Rangers had a runner on third base.  The catcher was throwing the ball back to the pitcher and he hit the bat of the batter.  The ball rolled out into the infield and the runner ran home to take the lead.  They have to review the play and get a decision from headquarters but the decision was that the run would stand.  There was a delay of the game because the fans were mad and were throwing things on the field.  Later in the game, Jose Batista hit a 3 run home run to win the game for the Blue Jays.  He was so happy he threw his bat and the picture went viral on the internet for the next few days.  I thought if the Blue Jays had lost the game and been eliminated from the playoffs, there would be riots in the streets of Toronto.  Fortunately, the Blue Jays won and later went on to the League Championships.
