The Jays went into the 9th inning of tonight's game against the White Sox down 6-2, with a 10-game winning streak on the line. They actually managed to scratch back to 6-5 before Alex Rios struck out on a checked swing to end the game, and the streak. I would've loved to have seen them pull off the comeback, but it's still been a great ride recently.
So far, in the final 26 games that I wrote about here, they've gone 8-1 with tonight's loss. I said in that earlier blog post that they'd have to go 20-6, and get some help, in order to make the playoffs. They have 4 games this weekend against the team that they have to catch (Boston), and will be either 7 or 8 games back of the Red Sox after tonight, depending on how Boston fares against the Rays (currently, 1-1 in the 12th). If the Jays could go into that big 4-game set down "only" 7 games back of the Red Sox, they'd at least be in a position to make things interesting... especially if they had another great weekend like the last couple.
