Canada Day with The Blue Jays

We are off to the game. The car picks us up at Leslie's house and wisks us away to Toronto. The ride is enjoyable because I don't have to think about the traffic.

We get to the Roger's Center and find our gate. We take the elevator up to the 4th floor and find our suite. We are in Suite 430. There are two very nice young ladies there that welcome us. We get straw hats and Canadian flags. We also get our prepaid visa cards.

After reserving our seats, we head out to explore. We head down to level 1, but it is crazy busy. We found the Jays store, but the lineup was too long to get in. Then, we head up to the rooftop gallery. It is busy up here as well, but we have great photo ops. The roof is open today because it is a great day for a ball game.

We head back to our suite and grab some free food and drinks. We have vouchers for 4 alcoholic drinks, and my cousin doesn't drink. ;>). Our seats give us a great view of the ballpark, and we are in the shade! There is a little bit of a breeze and we have cold drinks.

It is a disappointing 1st inning with New York getting the first 2 runs of the game. Gausman is on the mound, and we are hopeful for a win.

The 2nd inning is blanked. So we haven't lost any ground. That also means that we haven't gained any either.

The 3rd inning started with the first 2 batters getting on for New York. However, they were stranded. The Jay's were 3 up and 3 down.

The 4th belonged to the Jay's with my fav George Springer hitting a home run! Gimenez homers right after Springer, so niw we are tied at 2. Next came Schneider with a single. Straw got on. Bith of them got home as well. That's 4 runs in the 4th.

The 5th was a no hitter on both sides. Gausman has left the game now with over 90 pitches.

The 6th saw 2 left on base for New York.

The 7th is where the wheels fall off. New York scores 2 runs on errors from the Jays. The bottom of the 7th is where we shine. Clement singled to keft bring home Gimenez. George homered again, bringing in Heineman, Barger, and Clement! A grand slam for my buddy Springer bringing in 4 runs. 9-4 now.

New York got one in the 8th, and now it is 9-5. The bottom of the 8th and Clement, Lukes, Barger and Gime, ez and George come through again! We won 12-5.

Now, the way out of Roger's Center is another story. We have to make our way to Front Street. We have to go through the tunnel to get over the tracks. We are swimming an up stream in a sea of people. Rude people at that. We finally make it to the car. Very sweaty I my world.

We head out of the madness called downtown Toronto to the serene quiet of Hamilton. I think the best thing today was to put a smile on the lady who does so much for others that she often will forget to do things for herself. Love you, cousin!Okumaya devam et
