Summary:"We were actually playing a man short, which you guys probably don't know anything about," [Cito Gaston] explained. "We were playing a man short today. We were playing a man short the last two days. If it had been the eighth inning I would have used him. The ninth inning I would have used him." "I'm not sure," a careful [John McDonald] said when asked if he thought he could have scored. "I agree with the move. It was too early. When (Cito) doesn't make a move early in the season, it's like, 'We have confidence in you' and later on in the season you're not always looking over your shoulder." With two out in their last gasp, Lewis doubled. Hill then grounded a ball between [Luis Valbuena]'s legs to keep Jays' hopes alive. [Adam Lind] crushed his huge homer for a Jays' win. Bring out the genius stick.
