Errors Hurt, Rios Continues to Shine
The Toronto Blue Jays had a stretch of 11 games without an error. That helped them put up a very long win streak. Recently, the Jays began a series against the White Sox and already in the first 3 Games, they have committed 6 Errors, 3 of them Coming for the Human Highlight reel, John Mcdonald. Jose Bautista played at first base in game 3 of the series, only his 3rd ever start at first base, and made 2 costly mistakes. The Jays would end up losing by only one run to snap their 10 Game Winning Streak and that proves Defense is just as important as Hitting and Pitching. The Jays will now Play 7 Games against the Red Sox in September, a huge oppurtunity to gain some ground on them in the Wild Card.
Meanwhile, Alex Rios continues to swing the bat well as he extends his 10 Game Hit Streak to 11. He Had a Single and a Two-Run Home Run in Wednesdays Loss to the White Sox.


Tough game, 'you can't win em all', even though we should have won that one. At least we showed that the White Sox are no playoff team. It is unfortunate where we are right now, because we are definately a better ball club than they are.
