Blue Jays Talk

Blake Murphy and Julia Kreuz recap the incredible 18-inning Game 3, where the Blue Jays’ pinch-hitting left their lineup lacking offensive juice, Eric Lauer was incredible,  Shohei Ohtani’s was intentionally walked a lot but potentially not enough and more (25:41). Foul Territory’s Erik Kratz (51:14) discusses the Blue Jays’ locker room after the marathon game, and Yahoo Sports’ Jordan Shusterman (1:16:13) gives his thoughts on Ohtani’s heading to the mound and the likelihood the series will shift back to Toronto.

Plus, they chat about Shohei Ohtani, the decision not to intentionally walk him in the seventh inning, and what they do vs. Ohtani on both sides of the ball in Game 4.
