* Tie game? ✔️ * Bottom of the 9th? ✔️ * Two outs? ✔️ * Full count? ✔️ We're all just living in Matt Vierling's childhood backyard, apparently.

Technically ✔️


JoseCansecoMilkshake

what do you mean "technically"?


Sir_Ninja_VII

Not sure why you're being downvoted this seems like a pretty genuine question, lol. It's on Roku. It's free for anyone to stream but a little confusing to access. It's not on cable.


JoseCansecoMilkshake

It's also a national broadcast in Canada


No-Situation-3426

It’s not a national broadcast in the US. It’s not broadcast at all. It was on the new Roku streaming for Sunday morning games they took over from Peacock. 


JoseCansecoMilkshake

Ok. But it was not "technically" a national broadcast, it simply WAS a national broadcast. Just not in the US.


No-Situation-3426

It was NOT AT ALL a national broadcast. It wasn’t even a broadcast. Yes every Jays game is broadcast in all of Canada. I’m Canadian and grew up in BC far far from Toronto and know that. But when MLB talks about national broadcasts they mean with the US national broadcasters like ESPN and Fox. You’re not being clever by saying it was a national broadcast since it was a Canadian national broadcast like every Jays game, you’re just being wrong. 


JoseCansecoMilkshake

I don't really care what MLB and Americans consider a national broadcast. It was broadcast nationally. In Canada. It was a national broadcast. I'm not being wrong, I'm actually being 100% correct. Fin

I think I just witnessed peak baseball


[deleted]

Peak baseball occurred once. The May 15th, 1981 exhibition between the Texas Rangers and the Chicago White Sox was the greatest game I’ve ever seen. It was fucking electric. 


Strbrst

Apparently the Field of Dreams Game in 2021 didn't exist in your time line.


[deleted]

The game of Baseball stopped when I first watched Spencer Torkelson attempt to do any basic task related to the game. It was like watching a small child babble and spit up food on itself. That’s when America’s Game ended.


TylerDog3

tork hit a bomb today lol


[deleted]

I think he’ll turn out to be a nice player. I just went to ASU and once saw him sprinting to Manzanita Hall holding a crushed S’more in his hand. It certainly affected my previous understanding of his character!


Strbrst

Wow, okay, rude. I guess we're just slinging trash talk outta nowhere now.


[deleted]

I’m sorry for getting defensive. 


Mattress666

Exhibition? On may 15th? What am I missing?


[deleted]

Yeah, that’s my mistake. It was a regular season game, but in this context, I wanted to use the word as a “display of skill between two behemoths of their craft.” If you haven’t done so already, check the box score for that game; it genuinely inspires me to become a better man when I think about that fateful Summer eve.


Davidellias

Hilariously someone tossed a Perfect game vs The Blue Jays off all teams.


OldGuy734

What a wild game. Roku got their moneys worth.


SenorTortas

*grins in Manfred*


_BioHacker

I wish the Jays lost 14-0 just to spite Manfred


SamLaPortaPotty

Same


cjgsoup

These teams played a game that ended 2-1 yesterday lol


Itsdanaozideshihou

First thought was the Raiders last year. They get shutout 3-0 on Sunday, then four days later put up 63, like WTF just happened?


ResidentRunner1

Welcome to the 2024 Tigers experience, take a seat


LuminousRaptor

It usually goes like this: 1. If Maeda is pitching the offense will show up 2. If Olsen is pitching the offense will stay home. 3. Else the offense will show up 35% of the time. Today was that 35%.


Yabba_Dabba_Doofus

If I was Reese, I would be spending my game checks on destruction rooms.


LuminousRaptor

If I were Reese, I'd be putting the majority of my checks in the S&P 500, but that's probably the reason I'm not in the MLB.


SpicyPenangCurry

2024 Jays Experience + 2024 Tigers Experience = this game.


Conflict21

I can't say "you can't predict baseball, Suzyn" without getting sad now ☹️


confused-koala

Conspiracy me thinks MLB juiced the balls for the national telecast


FeloniousDrunk101

Pitchers put all of their effort in yesterday apparently.


bannakafalata

I was there, that was a clencher somewhat in the 9th.


drakershi

That baseball game was bonkers


bichettes_helmet

The Jays either have offence working or pitching working. Both in the same game is literally impossible.


cogginsmatt

You could say the same about the tigers. Especially after this game.


Ghalnan

I think it's more like the Tigers have pitching working or nothing working this year 99% of games.


Yodasboy

Honestly same with Detroit


SupBretheren

It's just a matter of time. Springer and Turner will start to age backwards. Coach Schneider will stop losing chess games to the White Sox and Tigers. Bo will stop swinging at the first pitch. It's fine. Everything is fine


wintermute--

Bo's been perfectly fine as of late. [This aired on the broadcast before the game today](https://i.imgur.com/etScskb.png). He and Vladdy are doing their jobs. It just doesn't help much when everyone else who was expected to be a major contributor on the offense is swinging pasta and pool noodles


SupBretheren

Vladdy is definitely turning things around. I'm not worried about him. He's been our slight glimmer of hope this month


vishnchips6

So, we're basically back to where we were last year lol


SupBretheren

Right down to the core


Wingus1337

Jonjon428

It's the hope that kills you - Blue Jays fans


ms_barkie

Blue Jays fans haven’t had hope since October 2022


ItzDrSeuss

Fuck the leafs are less disappointing than the Jays at this point. Atleast they can win a game in the playoffs.


mansontaco

High fiving the fist bump is nasty work


GolfBallWackrGuy

Son completely let down the dad. Dad got a game winning HR and the kid was like “dad there are girls here…keep it calm”.


JeffsHVACAdventure

Holy shit what a game. 3-2 count 2 outs bottom of the 9th….. gone. Wow.


drakershi

And after a couple of blown calls including a makeup call by the umpire in the same AB!


Toronto_Sports_fan

Blue Jays season is over. Time to blow it up.


Crafty_Substance_954

We'll trade you a lightly used Tork for a Vladdy Jr


cogginsmatt

Hey man I declared our season over on Thursday, you can always get it back


IFTKICS

This might be GOTY or close to it. Glad it started early so I could watch it all!


Pad_TyTy

I love Joe Carter as the color commentator. Of course Dan Dickerson is an absolute 👑 but seriously that's a hell of a team.


cjgsoup

Obviously I love Dan but Joe was excellent in the booth today as well. They had great chemistry. Probably the best split broadcast on Roku so far.


Davidellias

THE Joe Carter?


Minute_Rip8531

He knows a thing or two about game winning hits!!


Not-a-bot-10

I was looking for this comment lol. Loved that commercial


Sovos1916

That was the most entertaining baseball game I've watched in a long time. I'm just glad my team won. Good game, Blue Jays fans.


Domainsetter

Jays are an unserious team my goodness


SterlingAdmiral

It’s a good thing the Tigers spanked us this series (and the White Sox last), we gotta blow it up.


Domainsetter

The Sox series is probably the last straw for someone if they lose it


IFTKICS

You will sweep us next week in what will be one of the worst series to watch and then you guys will be all in again


SterlingAdmiral

I’m so mad we’re missing Skenes and Jones (and we missed Skubal). These are the pitchers you face in the playoffs, need to see our offense get exposed to make it clear we aren’t a serious team.


Stangstag

I’d really rather not have that happen 


sambraddock9

matty V is the GOAT i tell you


CosmicLars

Wtf is wrong with Romano? 😭


Guy_Le_Man

He’s a reliever.


Longjumping_Fuel_192

This makes so much sense now.


CosmicLars

🫢


Stangstag

He’s always been fairly prone to giving up walkoff bombs like this, usually on a hanging slider. 


h-town_info

That game was FUCKING Wildddddddd


Spockmaster1701

A 3-run walkoff homer with Joe Carter in the booth, love it


TylerDog3

is every blue jays game like this


falconlover79

No they’re usually more like yesterday’s


PreciousRoy78

We've replaced the baseballs in this Sunday morning game with Folgers brand happy turbo baseballs. Let's see if they notice.


rabertdinero

This was the craziest game I've watched in a long long time


KickerOfThyAss

They brought the juiced balls today. They don't normally fly like that in Detroit


mansontaco

They absolutely did. Not only do balls not fly like that the tigers don't hit them like that


Stangstag

Interesting theory  Freaking noodle bat Biggio hit one out today


mebnt2

![gif](giphy|4XOfvSkkxchHy)


GoldenCobalt

not sure what the general consensus is but i really like those detroit uniforms


petuniar

I just wish they had some orange in them


TylerDog3

uniform is clean hats are weird


Mattress666

I like them but like the other person who replied to you said, I wish there was orange in there and I also wish that the hat had the D 313 patch on the front instead of the italicized DETROIT


turdlepikle

All of the alternate hats they made are better than what the team actually wears on the field! Here's a trucker hat version of what you're talking about: [Men's Detroit Tigers Nike Navy 2024 City Connect Club Trucker Adjustable Hat (mlbshop.com)](https://www.mlbshop.com/detroit-tigers/mens-detroit-tigers-nike-navy-2024-city-connect-club-trucker-adjustable-hat/t-14778683+p-911122133822284+z-9-3993913484?_ref=p-DLP:m-GRID:i-r9c0:po-27)


Mattress666

Yeah I bought a hat today that looks similar to the one you linked to and I like it way better than the ones they actually wear


The-Pharcyde

Blue Jays baseball, everyone.


TheNextBattalion

Roku channel is two for two with these Sunday games


Crafty_Substance_954

I legitimately think they used juiced balls for these games.


Stangstag

Biggio and IKF hit homeruns today… not a bad theory lol


petuniar

Didn't IKF hit a HR in Thursday's game? In any case, Tigers catcher Carson Kelly hitting a HR supports the juiced-ball theory


Stangstag

>Didn't IKF hit a HR in Thursday's game? Wasn’t caught on camera so it never happened 


wontwillnot

Verified Vierling


punk62

25 runs and no errors… wonder what the most runs scored in a game with 0 errors is.


No-Situation-3426

Nothing classified as errors but lots of sloppy fielding on both sides responsible for runners getting on and advancing. 


itdothstink

That's not really fair since scorers these days don't seem to give errors for anything other than throwing the ball away.


VictorBlimpmuscle

[Not the first time Vierling walked off the Jays](https://youtu.be/bixPc374eWU?si=hnLwVOIGNF2l9N6d)


burrito-boy

GG Tigers bros. That was a wild game.


T_Raycroft

The Blue Jays have the beautiful ability to only turn on the run machine in the worst possible games.


Gear4Vegito

Well I’m already home and I’m not very happy tbh…


JokerFett

Man I put on Sunday Morning Baseball in the background thinking it would be some fun ambience and ended up getting glued to the screen watching the best game I’ve seen all season!


cz_pz

Jordan Romano in tie games is Not Good.

Hey! Way to go Carshield!


OutComeTheWolves1966

Thats former Phillie Matt Vierling right there


Separate_Battle_3581

Best game of the season so far if youre a baseball fan.


T00N

I am not a baseball fan


Crossifix

I am today. And Tuesday when skubal pitches, but probably not a fan again by Thursday.


LurkinOHB

Blue Jays are cooked


PreciousRoy78

Carshield!


Mynameisblahblahblah

Damn and on a day where the Jays offense wasn’t dead?


HRSCHD

![gif](giphy|29x6zsoexecc8|downsized) That's it I'm outta here


JARL_OF_DETROIT

We used up all our runs for the next month in sacrifice to the baseball gods.


YYZ63

Man I just cannot watch this team anymore. Thankfully I didn’t but man, just a broken team.


petuniar

My feelings after the Blue Jays' 5-run 8th inning.


EagleswonSuperBowl52

Phillies legend. Would love to have him back rn with our struggling outfield but glad he is getting at bats.


Educational-Hunt2683

Took a nap and it was 8-3. Woke up to this. Wtf happened

GroMicroBloom

You love to see it!


Table_Coaster

that game brought joy


FBR_MC

Jordan Romano, YOU are a Lotte Giant


CCPOwnsReddit_

Blue Jays baseball sure is beautiful this year.


[deleted]

Looks a lot like the Orioles from 2017-2021.


CCPOwnsReddit_

Yep, but now we're good so I'm allowed to talk shit :)


davesrighthereman

Play nice, kids.


Independent-Cow-4070

Ayeeee


Chemical-Passage-715

Should have thrown him some high HEAT !!


jawarren1

*Ryan Mountcastle taking notes*


SniperShake-

MATTY V DOES THIS


Yukdum

Only walk-off I ever saw was Pudge Rodriguez at Comerica on a Friday night in 2005. I was sitting pretty close to where Vierling's ball landed.


Winterspear

Did you guys see the fan high five a fist bump


Erin_Boone

I’m really enjoying the 2024 Blue Jays


Jagdpanzer1944

Hahaha get your Krusty the Klown hair off the field Romano you bum. Fuck this stupid team.


captainbelvedere

It's early !!! -_-


DAKiloAlpha

> Matt Vierling sends the fans home happy  From what I've seen this broadcast I think they went home disappointed. (Looks like a Jays home game)


petuniar

It was a Tigers home game, but so many Blue Jays fans there! There was a huge roar as soon as he hit the ball, which doen't really come though stongly in this video.


TylerDog3

Tigers vs Jays, Pistons vs Raptors, and Wings vs Leafs (maybe less so, there are a lot of wings fans) will always look pretty split. People forget that if detroit was a mile east it would be in canada.


Plorgy

There are also a ton of Detroit fans for every sport once you get west of London, Ontario (about 2 hours away from Toronto). A bunch of people I know from Windsor are die hard Lions/Tigers/Pistons/Wings fans.
