Jays beat Mets
Photo by Timothy T Ludwig/ Met 2 Blue Jays 3 That was a totally different game than yesterday’s. I think we are going to like Robbie Ray. He was throwing 96-97 and hitting the edges of the zone. I think we’ll get days when he walks too many, but if he can give us some starts like this we will be happy. He pitched 5 innings, allowed 4 hits, 1 earned, 2 walks with 5 strikeouts.

Also a long foul ball....
