It’s official: the Blue Jays lost to the Tampa Bay Rays … 8-10.
The Blue Jays have one of the best offenses in the league, but their pitching tonight struggled …
Phew. What a game huh? (Just an FYI: The game lasted over 4 hours!)
Phew! What a game. What a game …
I’m so tired right now, so … instead of recapping each play, let’s recap the fan reactions on Twitter.
1) Francisco Liriano lasted 1/3 of an inning.
Lariano's biggest problem is Lariano. Needs to throw strikes. #bluejays

2) Who should be catching Liriano? Russell Martin or Jarrod Saltalamacchia?
Nothing against Salti but Martin should be catching lariano #LetsRISE #BlueJays
— Shane McGuire (@McGuire80) April 7, 2017
Russell Martin catching makes no difference in this game. Don't be stupid. #BlueJays

#BlueJays Why is Jared catching Liriano anyway. I thought Martin was his horse whisperer? Don't understand Gibby?
— P swizel 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 (@kipsy1979) April 8, 2017
It's Gibby's fault that pairing Liriano and Salty, not with Martin.#Bluejays

Catching up on twitter and trying not to be one of those crazy Martin-Liriano conspiracy nuts. #BlueJays

4) Blue Jays fans hate Tropicana Field.
The Trop is the worst. #BlueJays #LetsRISE

The TROP is A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!! #BlueJays
— Amanda (@AmandaDianeM) April 8, 2017
Dumbest ballpark in the league. Can of corn fly ball turns into a double. #BlueJays
— Wade (@Every5thDay) April 8, 2017
Tropicana Field is the Bargain Harold's of MLB stadiums.
