Guest: Blue Jays reliever Mason Fluharty
The first ALCS to open up in Toronto since 1992 began the same way the last one did - with a Blue Jays loss.
The Jays got a leadoff home run from George Springer and then just one more hit the rest of the night and fell to the travel- and extra-inning-weary Seattle Mariners 3-1.
Mason Fluharty got two huge outs in the top of the eighth, striking out Josh Naylor and Eugenio Suarez to escape Seranthony Dominguez’ jam and give the bats a chance to come back. They didn’t. The rookie lefty joins us from a very quiet Jays’ clubhouse to talk about his playoff experience so far.
And, of course, we dip into the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca to hear what you have to say!
