They do it every time

@@ServerManagment And it gives away the result of the play

That’s not new

​@k23 I'd rather hear the other teams' broadcast reactions. The pain in their voices.

Great game.

Yeah that was “pitchy”. Guy can’t sing.

​@@DDDDdJagrYou must be real fun at parties....

Jays just too good

@@KayJay85 Are you seriously still using that “insult” from 2010? Hahahaha. If you want to know, I am.

@@DDDDdJagrbetter than you 🚬💀

That's what it's all about! You guys will be a force again this year. Much respect from this Jays fan 🤜🤛 🍻

Should be real good from a Jays fan! Your stadium is outstanding.

The amount of hits. Anyones game. 🇨🇦

Thank you, your team played well too! Looking forward to Saturday and Sunday already!

Cards hit well enough to win most games! Respect from Canada! Go Jays!

Except Dylan Cease and Gerrit Cole. They were filthy today!

So is Brandon belt.. underrated!!!! Needed left handed bat in the middle of the lineup. He's a CHAMPION

​@@Gemnist98Forgot Ohtani, 10Ks today.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Go the Blue Jays!

Completely agree, thank goodness there’s an off day today because we all need it but a great W to start the season, let’s go Blue Jays!! ♥️⚾️

The Gateway Arch on the field has always been cool and unique to see. Even the view of the surroundings from inside the stadium 👌🏻

It's one of the stadia that I want to visit. Great baseball town.

It was a beautiful scene, we were in the RF terrace, pitching was not great but i've never seen a team get more bloop hits, like 10 of them in one game. Great contact hitting team that's for sure.

@@EE-bg1de Pitching never fully gets into 12th gear until maybe the end of May-early June. Both teams can hit, so this sort of result was expected. Manoah is gonna be our #1, but he's also young and now has more responsibility. I know he'll do well. He's a beast!

As a Bluejays fan myself it's always been the best imo, it's on my list to go to alongside PNC,Fenway & Oracle Parks

Would love to see an All Birds World Series!!

Your stadium is beautiful but Toronto is also a baseball town obviously.

with BP pitcher tossing meatballs all day.. how sad...

Amen!

Well Said

If the mariners game showed us anything, it's the fans that are getting to pitchers because of the pitch clock.

The game is catering a bit more to hitters but it's also the usual April struggles. Pitchers take a bit longer to get into form. Spring training doesn't prepare enough for the intensity of the first few weeks of the season when hitters are trying to secure their spot in the lineup.

@@ldaws-3912 Based on the amount of small ball on opening day, the game is catering a lot more towards fans.

Bo still can't field😂 But he's insane with the stick

SAAAAAME Dan is SOOOOO much better than Pat Tabler who when he started talking I'd fall asleep

Yikes.

Both Dan Shulman and Buck Martinez are the best you can get 👍👍

Dan thinks fly balls are homers.. Dan is a better college basketball broadcaster than a baseball broadcaster. So many times I look up hear him like it is gonna be a home run then it isn’t. You would think watching so many games would improve his depth perception.

@@keith96969that’s bullshit. There were at least 3 fly balls to the warning track yesterday that I saw and not ONCE did he get baited into thinking it would leave the yard. He would say something like “swing and a fly ball relatively deep to centre for Guerrero, not a tough play for the centre fielder” that’s BS

The Markham Maniac !!!

Or bloops singles

Italiano vero :)

Or situational hitting

Cardinals will win the series.

@@SleepyWRLD999 How ? Our best starter is starting game 2 ... and game 3 is a fairly 50/50 matchup ... I think that the blue jays are gonna win the series since they won the opener.

@@SleepyWRLD999 Chill, it’s the opening series, not the World Series.

I’m gonna be there Wednesday I’m so excited

Glad we got a respected announcer to come and replace the job of Danny Mac. Didn't really hear a lot of emotion out of Chip during spring training but damn he was fired up

I agree. Especially when the cardinals took the lead in the 6th

So glad he’s gone 😂

@@JBruceAlmighty ^there's one in every comment section.

This team is built for small ball. They manufactured runs. Can’t call this feast or famine as their approach was clear from the start of spring.

The Jays are a much different team this year compared to last. They have a lot more speed on the base paths and are more balanced with left handed batters. They gave up some power and replaced it with defence and speed. It was noticeable with their base running.

​@@craigharrison5406 TBH they really didn't give up that much power considering they only lost Teo who is a HR hitter, & Lourdes isn't really a HR hitter & hits more for average. But with both of them gone they became more balanced offensively & WAAAAY better defensively. Varsho's plays alone on defense where he didn't force a ball home & hit the cut off man or 2nd basemen were things Teo & Lourdes refused to do.

Feast or famine was last season. This team is built to score in any situation.

Varsho has almost as much power as Teo. He hit 27 last year and the Rogers center will probably up that number. Belt has some pop and K K isnt really a power hitter but I'll take his defense and speed over Lourdes anyday. This team should be fun to watch. Also that highlight where Varsho had the ball in the corner and was going to throw it home, but then threw to second stopping a double was a example of why we're better than last year

BLUE JAYS

@@jrdonaldson2053 hopefully this is just a World Series preview

@@erichdiebenow4727 Yeah!! Battle of the Birds Preview

Y'all definitely getting us this weekend

GGs

Agree he was brilliant!! 😁😁

Unfortunately/fortunately (depending on your perspective), he got banned from commenting on the MLB channel, so he makes his comments on the official Cardinals channel

@@TheCornDog.I feel like I do remember hearing about that last season and just forgot. At least you're here Corn Dog, good to see you around, hope you're ready for another season. I know I am

​@@superbeavers7645Yep, it's nice to have baseball back. This season definitely has a lot more hype to it, especially with the hype of the World Baseball Classic.

Bye mint

S.u

not weak, but inaccurate yes

My TV screen should be in witness protection for the amount of times I berated it last year for errant throws.

And as I’ve been saying for years, he’s worth -4 runs a season in field. Does not matter. You cannot replace the offence.

Agreed 100%
