Blue Jays vs. Twins full game highlights 8/31/24 #baseball

at the Twins winning last night got a well pitched game from their Ace and Pablo Lopez and tonight looked to make it two straight As the rookie zebie Matthews has the ball for the fourth time of his big league career three five inning starts for zebi so far and he's looked good that command as advertised only two walks just under a strikeout an inning Springer who had the day off yesterday now steps in today and gets ready to go and he hit Springer ran the fast ball in on him Springer appears to be okay as he's taken off the elbow guard and heading down to first so Springer aboard to begin the night and here's Dalton Vara and this is a well hit ball to deep left center field and it's going to go dalon varo with a long home run to left Center and after getting shut out last night the Blue Jays waste no time getting on the scoreboard tonight that long home run in the opposite field the ball was carried like crazy during batting practice glad he hit some ball where few people can hit him in this ball park and bar gave that one to ride the opposite field two nothing Blue Jays runner on first no outs top of the first right on left pitch swing in a Fly ball right field turning around Kepler and Horwitz has left the yard second two-run Homer of the inning for the Blue Jays and they're up 4 nothing before an outs been recorded and this pitch is a cutter that just stayed out over the plate they were trying to go back door and that is right down the middle and he didn't miss it he hit it high and deep over that high wall in right field now Alejandro Kirk sends one to deep right and it's off the wall and it's going to bounce past Kepler backing towards the infield and that's going to allow Kirk to get to second base runners on the corner still just one out and here comes the eighth batter to come to the plate here from the top of the first Nathan Lucas getting a start for the second night in a row since being recalled as he pokes one down down the left field line it's hit fairly well and it's down and it'll skip up into the seats so it'll be a double for Lucas to bring home Kirk Wagner has to stop at third it is five to nothing two- one pitches hit on a line up the middle in the center field of a Wagner scores they're giving Lucas the wave he scores without a slide it's a two-run knock for Leo Jimenez and the Blue Jays are up a touchdown in the first inning is finally over the Blue Jays bat 11 put up seven Jose Bas having a terrific R we mentioned his four games in a row pitching at least seven Innings and not allowing any more than two earned runs Ros is walking about three batters per nine and Castro's on to begin play Matt waler one for four last night and left field tonight swing and a miss strike three gets him to chase a slurve below the zone and Brio strikes out walner for the second out of the bottom of the first so two down here's Royce Lewis the third base who grounds one weekly to third Barger got it and on to First in time and buo settles down very nicely after the leadoff walk a one out base hit for Horwitz and now Addison Barger who was called out on strikes his first time up swing and a Fly ball right field going back Kepler looking up see you later another Homer for the Blue Jays another hit for Addison Barger his two-run blast makes it 9 nothing Toronto with one out in the top of the second zebie delivers and this one swung on and missed and that's going to be the inning so five of the six outs recorded by zebie Matthews strikeouts outside Ball Four second walk of the inning that pushes him men is up to Second and varo strolls down to First here's Guerrero a base hit and a strikeout so far tonight both of those against zebi Matthews and now he lines one into Center and that's a base hit here man as his getting the wave he'll come in to score vho had time to kind of size up the situation and still come to third it's an RBI single for vatti it is 10 to nothing here's Spencer Horwitz he is off to a great start tonight he's dhing this evening at a two-run homer to right in the first and singled and scored in the second Beautiful base hit left Center Pitch was away took it away lined it into the left Center for an RBI single it's 11 to nothing watch how he stays on this pitch it's away and he just goes with it the other way he has good at bats great for three already top of the order now for the twins Willie Castro up for a second time the pitch swing and a line drive diving catch at first Guerrero flatty going full stretch over towards second base leaped and made the play before it got into right field two outs well he Aid on the ground after that play put his head against the dirt and you can hear the Blue Jays fans a lot of Blue Jays fans appreciate that play Standing Ovation for him pretty good athlete over there very comfortable with vlat in there every day and BOS gets lck swinging in a very quick and I mean very quick bottom of the 30 for only five pitches Brio pitches to Matt walner a left-handed hitter first pitch hit on the ground softly to First picked up by Guerrero jogs to first base and steps on the bag one out strike three called right at the knees two down here in the bottom of the fourth this is line to left and it's going to carry out to Lucas it's another quick inning for Jose BOS who is rolling again here tonight boy that broke back and he got the call at the top of the zone that was a wicked two seamer you could see that Santana wanted no part of it and BOS gets the call 1-1 swing in a chopper to Third fielded by Barger he looks at it now throws to first and that's a another one two three inning for buros 10 in a r in a row set down by the right-hander and we go to the sixth you see Austin Martin he is now into the ball game taking over in Center as manwell Margo had to leave the game so look at Margo made the catch of the Outfield and just limping there a little bit this was in the fifth inning and then batting and was never able to get out of the box and clearly wincing there as he worked his way up the line so that's not a good sign so Margo is out Austin Martin now in Center 11 nothing boy right [Music] on he took a chance and man did it pay off number two for will Wagner and it is 12 to nothing third three hit game for will Wagner since he's Jo the Blue Jays and he put a charge in this one and don't care how the ball is carrying that ball was going to go out of any ball yeah could probably see this coming a while back but a position player is on to pitch and that's Kyle farmer here in the eighth inning is second career pitching appearance last one only prior one coming with the Reds in 2019 and will Wagner greets him with a base hit to Center Armor's pitch that 46 and it's hit out to the Deep right field Martin the center field are going back and that's off the top of the wall and it'll bounce back off the top of the fence again coming around third Wagner's going to score Lucas into third with a triple that one hit way off the top of the wall bounced down had weird spin bounced back off the top of the wall somehow stayed in play and so instead of an automatic double it's the first triple of the season for Nathan lucans round up the middle that's going to be a base hit for Jimenez that'll cash in Lucas to drive in another run three Ries for Leo menis Ernie Clement went up to the plate batting left-handed against Kyle farmer swings at the first pitch and Pops it up to the first baseman Carlos Santana and that's going to be the first out of the top of the ninth it's been that kind of game Blue Jay's up 14 nothing will Wagner hits the first pitch he sees down the right field line and into the right field Corner Bar is going to jog around third and come home Kirk stops at third Wagner up to second with a double and he's given the Blue Jays a 15 nothing Le there's a base H to left and Lewis will turn and makes second base with a ninth inning two out double it'll get Max Kepler to the plate Line Drive center field leri has it and that is the ball game for all of the folks who came to Minneapolis from so many different parts of Canada they didn't have a lot to cheer about last night but boy did the Blue Jays provide some fun moments for all those
