The Unforgettable José Bautista Bat Flip Inning!

bottom of 7th

inning

in Toronto Russell Martin, who was charged with the error that led to the Run Barton lead starts against Hamels with the Rangers leading 3-2 Jeff Bannister will start this

inning

with his Bullpen warming up after that long delay. for their starting pitcher, Cole Hamels, yes, the delay was 18 minutes after Martin's throw back to the mound hit the chewing bat, there are heels in Center replacing Shields' broken back, Crowder Rogers can't handle it , start for the Blue Jays until the end of the seventh, that's Russell Martin's speed, not many catchers run very well, forces and just to rush, you have to rush, he just played it wrong, he doesn't miss many balls, yeah, just hit him, he had time to see to close the gauntlet early. heel many innings playoff elimination game 10 the tension increases, so a mistake made by Andrews here is Pilar, who struck out twice today ground out, returned immediately after the delay and you leaving so quickly early keeps the crowd out of him and that was all a big mistake now thinking two on the pillar and they're going through the juggler right now you got Justin smoke on this in the cover circle hit Goings so they're going to make a move.

I thought maybe you'd see Pilar move it around a little, but that won't be the case. movement, meaning moving the running back, is not the case here, foreigner, there are a lot of guys who have really played well and their stock has skyrocketed, no one else but this guy, has been as impressive. I agree and that's why from the beginning, that's why he swings the bat, Toronto doesn't really play to manufacture. runs, but he has been one of their strongest sticks in the lineup, we have seen him have some power, we have seen the speed, the great defensive shooting, he has done it all in the Ford and almost five games now in this series, the Cole's 106th release.

Hamels, well, I think Cole Hamels tops this as much as he can in this entry and that's all we'll see of him. This will be a bullpen game. The rest of the ending has polar in swing mode at this point. been hitting that cutter on a very surprised Hamill shows him anything in the zone lefty Jake geekman and righty Sam Dyson and the Texas 10. the ground on the right side everyone is safe oh god you got the lefty first baseman he's got the easy shot for the force and more Sanctus once again tension in the last innings of the postseason elimination game, nothing routine, well what happens here allows them to bring Goins back here to play and almost se It happens to you, but now you drink.

Justin smokes backwards, he watches Russell Martin take the lane right there and that's what takes away his angle to throw a little bit and that causes a little bit of hooking, but I think he already had a bad grip on the ball before Russell Martin made his makes two errors in the first direction of the inning and then Moreland and the point is that they have recovered Justin Smoke and now you manufacture, you bring gone, leave Goins in the game to drop the touch prepared very well for Toronto as you said Goins by a bunt and Revere are his best contact hitter behind him.

It would be interesting to see how they try to use a bullpen because they have Beckman up top. You know you want him to crush Revere if you get to that point and you have Dyson as good, but then you go to all the right-handed hitters Goins oh for 15 in the series, but he's made tremendous defensive plays two with no one in a seventh inning, never you'll forget that he wants Beltran to feel this punt and that's all for see if Goins is square looking at missing anything in one and you're right Tom, the execution here is to push that ball Third base well, Texas put the wheel on Beltrade's charges with Andrews strength covers the third foreigner, yes, but he could also make a fake. wheel game here to try to get the pick at second base and we will get a runner from Martin Dalton Pompeii, the local native, a lot of saga, a lot of teams once they show that real play with the shortstop unoccupied, they will have the shortstop breaks early and moves the second baseman behind on a timed kickoff play.

Pompeii has to be careful not to go too early and cheap, even if they have a will play, if you're going to get close to the bunner, all you have to do is stop. that ball in front of Home Plate and still send it to third base and make them feel that after consecutive errors I would be surprised if they risk throwing and trying to make the leader run so Pompeya takes the lead. off second Pilar off first I want to go oh my gosh he dropped it wow yeah he actually did a great execution look at Beltre the perfect turn the throw and Elvis He just dropped it he just dropped it three outs Texas had all three outs in this inning in hand they sit here with none and the base is loaded wow three errors in the inning Andrews has made two Ken Revere with the bases loaded in the field in a run game strike one that's where the Revere speed comes into play see if you're si re coal Hamels right here you gotta get a strikeout Ben Revere puts the ball in play it's a run so this is where you're looking to get a strikeout and then hopefully you can get the Donaldson, maybe get over it if you're Ben Revere guys just put the ball on a flat bounce to the right side.

The shot comes home from the plate. Here is Pompeii. They know they are not going to bend it. Now the guardrail will say that you left the lane. You are looking for a. double play on the Pompeii slide with all the rules of the catcher protecting the catcher you will see the play and appears S has strength I think Pompeii is right you have to eliminate him he is still on the plate committed to the plate, you have to take him out. I thought it was a fair play. He wants referees Jeff Bannister to take a look at this play.

Yes, it's a clean slot. If this was at second base, you want to be within touching distance. the base is within being able to touch the plate and now the catcher becomes another infielder for me it is a double play ball. Sorry, that's the dichotomy between how the middle infield and the plate are treated. The receiver has protection where it cannot be aimed. Small infielders don't, as long as the runner is within arm's reach of the base. Can you imagine if they called a double play here? A wild run in the seventh inning is scored in the top half of a play that most people here at the Rogers Center have. never seen before and now in the bottom half of the inning three errors made by the Texas Rangers, you know, we have two, um, two former catchers driving and watching Gibbons' reaction in The Dugout.

I think he was like maybe we don't understand this. call our foreign address, he has to get it out. I think they're going to this call he's going to stay where he is and so are we and I know you're home when we get back. The base is carrying Donaldson to the plate and he is. he just loaded up Sam Dyson to face Rangers right-hander Josh Donaldson, he throws one out and everything the Rangers are doing here trying to find a double play ball, it's going to be difficult for the middle infielders because Revere He has a tremendous lead early and will be on top of the middle infielders very quickly trying to convert two foreigners.

These are the moments to look for if you are Josh Donaldson, you are sitting 2-0, it is the decisive factor that Texas has had. a bad finish and they have to come to you right now three mistakes in the tackle made by the Rangers and now time is up on the whole point on fire Dale Scott Dell Scott has had a difficult tackle but he has got the decisions right, really He has the slides right there and the ball comes off the bat both of them, all Bloom, the law scores and the Rangers come out in the second guy, they got the strength in second place, but that shows how strong Donaldson is, but I don't know why that our door does not.

I turn around and run and catch it, it's all those balls that fool him exactly a full 10 and Revere turns his back to the baseball so he can't get to second base. Here's the ball directly over his head, pedaling back but a little bit past him and he recovers in time to force it into second base, but at Revere's point, he has a big lead, where it's right there, yeah The smell catches him, he's thinking that I'm bent, that's why he comes back because it's a ball that you think he's going to kick well. Whats Next?

We are tied at three Tyson Two Bautista, are we tied? OMG, what a game, huh? What an inning, the seventh inning up to this point has taken 40 minutes, incredible foreigner if you look at the Rangers, they've had five outs in this. in the inning they already got the one at the plate and they got the one at second, they had six, they basically kicked three and the scoreboard only says two driving in the tie, it was over after the Rangers took the lead in a strange way in the upper half, thank you. You, for the deep left field drive, without a doubt, all of you, can only flirt with the fire for so long and it will burn you, without a doubt, there is the tripod.

Bautista, three-run shot, second home run of the Blues' last two innings. Jays Batista is starting to warm up he lost some balls inside he got the base before look Russell Martin right here he starts with this air right here that's one out and here's the second out Moreland's bad throw the short jump to Andrews can They don't handle it and then they have a little fun, but they play, they get the clankson throw and now you have the bases loaded with no outs, three routine plays, there's Cole Hamels, the Rangers starter, and Carnacio Palmer back in the sixth inning, about an hour ago, man alive that tied the game at two and then a seventh inning that we will never forget, well, you got Anthony and he hit a home run, you got Donaldson with a bloop and you got Bautista with a three-run home run When that happens for the Jays they are hard to beat overseas for 120 home runs and over 300 RBIs during the regular season.

Jeff Battiston's Rangers want the first two games of this series here in Toronto, the Blue Jays won, the last two games they faced elimination, something Toronto has never done. Made in the history of the franchise and Chronicle about it first, the inning continues well, apart from the death of Batista's home run by a thousand paper cuts, this offensive here in the seventh inning, I'm still, I don't think I've ever seen anything. so never colavello the eighth blue jay here in the seventh coronation to the second what a big inning that the Blue Jays have had to overcome think about the emotional roller coaster they were on well, I also think about Dyson's emotional roller coaster you I know that what they brought to this game is a sinker ball pitcher, we talked about defending the Blue Jays home run, it was the right choice, the guy who had not allowed a home run as an outfielder to a right-handed hitter, oh, Batista changed that story and the emotional rollercoaster, well let's hit rock bottom right now for Dyson, everyone has one more way out, I have to get it.

I'll tell you what the Blue Jays thought to counterattack the way they did, the emotional thing that goes for Russell Martin. through throwing a ball back, you will never see that in a million back throws, the pitcher hits the bat and it bounces and the play was called correctly and for them to come back and be able to put these points on the board and take the lead in this crazy half inning this crazy inning I gotta say it's amazing Sam Dyson, a former blue jay who missed both of Toronto's games in 2012, got into a fight with former teammate Encarnación earlier after Bautista's home run.

The funny thing is that he and Marcus Strowman played double ball together and he actually taught Stroman it's simple, go to Lewinski, over three, two on two, all over the stadium, most of the 90, they're standing, still They are strangers, as crazy as this inning was, they were one pitch away. to get out of this even after three hours, so you have to give the Blue Jays some credit, you make so many mistakes and an opportunity for an offense to advance like this, you'll get burned, but someone had to deliver, they came. with some big hits to achieve it he missed a 3-1 by Dyson appeared in foul territory a 53 minute inning finally comes to an end pavels eliminated from the foreign game
