Jo-Jo's first win since 2008

The Blue Jays won their 4th consecutive game last night against the Clevland Indians. This will currently place them in a 3 games series with the Cleavland Indians with game 2 being tonight and game three tomorrow. Jo-Jo Reyes pitched his first win since 2008(29 starts). The rest of the Jays team helped out their
win-less pitcher by racking up 11 runs to win the game 11-1. With the win last night it made the team 28-26. The team right now is riding the hot streak with their top hitter Jose Bautista who has hit 20 home runs in 46 games. Personally I think that Bautista is one of the best player in the league, he has improved his game over the past 3 years making him a well known name it the baseball community.

No matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference

Start of the Blue Jay Report






Some things we read, we read for humor, pass time, others we read to expand our knowledge. This blog could possibly be all of them. My goal is to show the readers how the Blue Jays are doing in the month of June.
