[@TheGhost204]

They left out the biggest part of this game - Swanson coming in with bases loaded, no outs, and doesn’t give up a run.

[@kylegrant4583]

Yeah, some of the "highlights" included in here could have been swapped out for that. Come on guys

[@kermitfrog593]

That speaks to the Angels' bad hitting as much as Swanson's good pithing. Jays also failed to capitalize on a similar situation in the previous inning. Some bad situational hitting this game.

[@gav1n197]

[@proteus404]

That 9th inning was worrisome for Jays fans. The blown 9th inning in that Dodgers game a few days ago is still burnt in to our memories.

[@quincee3376]

Agreed.

[@mrmeme-jq6qr]

What about your nasty memory which you hope no one see with T-Mobile power you collect others

[@HiroiSekai]

That really sucked, but unfortunately it was just from Schneider blowing the arms in the pen through the Seattle series and the first Dodgers game. Swanson was at 47 innings pitched by that point, and the most he's ever pitched in a season is 58. He's way overworked and has shoved the whole season for the Jays. Even today he had that masterclass against the Angels. You know the management was bad when all you had left to send out in the 10th to hold the Dodgers was Mitch White. Sounds like some reinforcements are coming back from the IL and hopefully from the trade deadline.

[@szeretlek-sok]

God the blown call with bases loaded is so brutal, an out instead of a run. Romano looking a bit shaky lately

[@innismor11]

Welcome to the MLB, where the game is never over until its over.

[@edelfreecuba]

Es increíble el trabajo de Othani, él es un gran jugador !!!

[@oilersrule9729]

That’s a very important win for us. Whit has certainly earned that lead off spot for now, he was awesome tonight and so was Gausman. Hopefully Shohei’s cramps aren’t serious, though. Good job Jays, see you tomorrow for Game 2!!

[@kermitfrog593]

Whit's a gem. He might actually be worth that potential 18 million dollar extension.

[@pabloruiz6224]

Even though after they have finished feuding with the Dodgers, I can see that they are still focus and ready to keep on track, and they defeated the Angels for the first game. Respect to their hometown in Toronto, way to go Blue Jays, good win.

[@johnnysoccer1983]

I love it..... They had a prediction of 3% for a HR from Shohei first at bat..... and literally first pitch... BOOM..... Shohei is the one.

[@onemancinema4642]

Chapman was absolutely correct in tearing into Schneider. He's a fool.

[@jarelmontes7583]

Damn, people get dramatic every time the Angels lose a game. They're gonna lose plenty, whether they make the post season or not.

[@trevorhe3103]

It’s not that deep, they just won 8 of 9 they can afford to lose one. This was a missed opportunity tho

[@patrickols]

They do make too many errors on défense however, it’s crazy

[@greenhat7618]

To the blue jays no less, whom I think is at the 3rd place in wildcard standings

[@innismor11]

To make the postseason, the Angels need to: - fend off Seattle plus -catch both the Yankees and Red Sox plus - catch one of Houston, Jays and Tampa (or Baltimore); all very good teams all set to improve their line-ups still That's too much. There's too many teams ahead of the Angels. Not gonna happen. The Angels won't make the postseason. I do understand the "going all in" by the Angels, at this trade deadline; Ohtani is gone to a US$500M+ contract somewhere after this season. Oh, and Ohtani needs a rest; a few days off. And the Angels can't win without both him and Trout.

[@kevindst]

Oh no stay healthy Shohei

[@jayDClo]

That pitch call is INSANE! GOD BRING IN THE ROBO STRIKE ZONE ALREADY

[@innismor11]

LOL. Nothing on the poor call on Guerrero by the same ump earlier in the game? That pitch was farther from the plate than the one to which you speak. Welcome to baseball. The poor calls all even out. I'm not against robocalls, but the season results will be the same. Angels Mgr Nevin needed to go all ballistic on his players They're the ones that (twice) left the bases loaded.

[@DavidRamirez-tp4rl]

@@innismor11 That call in the 9th inning calling that junk a strike (Beyond frame from a catcher, very obvious he brought it in) had game implication, more like it cost them the game! A little league umpire could have seen that! You cant say it evens out.

[@wasiudw]

SMH at MLB highlight editors! Didn't even show any bits of top of 7th when Swanson had to replace Gausman and pitch with bases loaded and 0 outs, and he leaked no runs there. How can you miss such a pivotal point of the game???

Man today just proved how much Zack Neto means to this team right now with as these bobbles and missed plays Velasquez has been making

[@15battery69]

Another Quality start from Gausman & what a spectacular job done by Swanson coming into the game with the bases loaded & nobody out as he completely shuts the Angels down & keeps them off the scoreboard... Merrifield doing major damage hitting leadoff tonight & absolutely should continue to bat at the top of the order... Very Unfortunate situation at the end of the game when the Angels head coach Nevin attempted to attack the home plate umpire as he was heading past the Angels dugout... Luckily the Police & another coaching staff member on the Angels were able to restrain him... Nevin made a complete fool of himself, & if it wasn't for another Angels coaching staff member stopping him, Nevin might have been leaving the ball park in handcuffs tonight... On a different note it will be interesting to see if Ohtani or Romano will be available to play again in this series for their respective teams after both players had to leave the game tonight...Ohtani with calf issues, & Romano with a lower back injury...

[@shaunduquette5992]

Nevin and Angels. Win with teamwork. Try to win without Shohei. Nevin. Give each player a role! ! The upcoming games in August will be strong enemies. Nevin. Need the meeting. Take advantage of the characteristics of the players. Never play selfish. The game from here, each play is really important. ⭕Angels are strong when they have good teamwork. 　⇩ The Angels players are growing. You can raise one or two more gears. ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ Nevin. Give Shohei the rest. You are pushing him too hard. Shohei's body breaks down. Nevin. You understand. Angles need Shohei's best pitching. Angels. Good opportunity. Think positive. To raise the power of the team, fight without Shohei. In times like this, call out to each other with your teammates. Cheer up and fight.

Tell the MLB Commissioner that the cause of MLB's declining popularity is that the spectators who have come to see it have reported their expectations three times. Ruin the spectacular game of the pitcher hitter!

[@goldbee3091]

Can anyone tell me why ohtani didn’t bat or pitch in the 8th/ 9th

[@bbustin1747]

He had pitched 9 innings over 100 pitches the day before Hit 2 HR and the last one hit. He had oblique tightness or cramping . A lot at risk for a franchise player. If he wasn’t a stopper on the pitching rotation , maybe he hits.

[@MrBeatboxmasta]

It's weird to intentionally walk Guerrero when everyone knows you have a high likelihood of either striking him out or getting a double play by pitching him on the outside. Then again, Chapman and Varsho are no Tony Gwinn either.

[@Flexb123]

Dude Vladdy has the least amount of strikeouts in the jays lineup. Go look at the stats. Bichette, Chap, Varsho, Springer. I think Merryfield is the only one with less but he also hasn't played as many games as Vlad has. The double play thing is true though.

The batting was terrible for the angels. Rengifo used to come up with some hits when it mattered but now everytime there's runners on base he's an automatic out. These games could decide the entire season and they have some people in the batting order who can't do anything. Very weird decisions.

[@JesusChrist2000BC]

Rengifo has been the best hitter outside of Ohtani the past two weeks. Him and Ward are 2 and 3 for 9 HRs and 15 RBIs in the past two weeks and they went 8-1. If you want to blame somebody blame Velasquez for having like 3 errors.

The "duh" was having Ohtani pitch on a double header. Extra stress on the body and it came back to bite the Angels.

[@eddieisontheroad]

I'm not a baseball manager but was the PH for Ohtani the right call. I know he had a cramp, but it was bases loaded, so you would think that a walk (whether the blue jay decides to pitch around him because they might have been fearful that he could swing one out of the park again, not knowing he has a cramp, or he draws a walk) would score one, then he would get a pinch runner. OK if they pitch to him, he might hurt himself swinging at the ball or running to first, but he could have been told to hold off. Just wondering.

[@troynoh69]

Cramp is code for a pulled muscle or oblique strain.
