Deep Left Field with Mike Wilner

It's bleak. But as bleak as it is, the Jays have overcome the odds before

Guest: Blue Jays outfielder Nathan Lukes       All appears to be pretty bleak in Blue Jays land as they head north and west to Seattle trailing the best-of-seven American League Championship Series two games to none.   The complete offensive collapse against the Mariners was wholly unexpected, especially given that the Jays had scored 34 runs over their four-game ALDS win against the New York Yankees and Seattle seemed ripe for the picking, coming off an exhausting and emotional 15-inning winner-take-all Game 5 in their ALDS against the Detroit Tigers. That game finished less than 72 hours before the M's put the finishing touches on their 10-3 Thanksgiving blowout of the Blue Jays.   But as bleak as it is, the Jays seem to have overcome the odds time and time again this year and Deep Left Field will continue to be with them every step of the way.   In today's playoff bonus episode, we speak to Nathan Lukes, who had 50% of the Jays' hits in Monday's loss, including RBI singles in both the first and second innings. The Jays only had one hit after the second inning - a Lukes single, his third hit of the game.   Lukes was playing with a badly bruised right knee after fouling a ball off himself in Game 1.   And, of course, we open the mailbag at [email protected] to hear your thoughts on the loss, some clinging to optimism, some resigned to defeat, some utterly off the wall.
