## Resource

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 6-5 loss vs. the Rangers to open the four-game series in Toronto. They take your calls and texts, and get to the late-game comeback that fell just short. They dive in on Kevin Gausman getting hammered early on, how the starting pitching has not gone very deep in games frequently this year, and the offence's inability to get it going early on. Plus, they discuss the day's news that Ernie Clement was the AL's leading vote-getter and is headed to the All-Star Game, and get into whether or not Kazuma Okamoto deserves to be the starter at third base in Philadelphia later this summer. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
