The young backstop made up for that in the sixth inning when he picked Austin Wynns off first base. In the seventh, Kirk wisely stepped in front of the plate and grabbed Bo Bichette’s relay throw, which had no chance of getting Ryan Mountcastle with the tying run, and threw a laser to third to erase Trey Mancini, who was trying to advance on the throw.

At the plate, Kirk walked and singled, but his biggest contribution came in the bottom of the eighth, when he came up with runners and first and second and nobody out in a tie game. Kirk jumped all over Dillon Tate’s first pitch, driving it to the wall in dead centre where it was run down by Cedric Mullins. The deep fly ball allowed both runners to tag up, though, and set the stage for the game winning sacrifice fly that followed.


This guy continues to deliver. I hope they trade Janssen.

According to Phil, if they'd punished him the other week, maybe he'd have picked off 4 runners instead of just 2 and had 2 doubles and 2 walks as well as set up 2 game winning RBI's in one night. As well, they would have written 2 articles about him. That's the way punishment works.

Actually, if he'd been punished, as "Phill-of-shit" wanted, he probably wouldn't have even had a chance to do anything positive. Kirk would have been benched or batted 9th. He proves once again that being stubborn does not make one right. Can't wait for his reply..."Kirk should have been punished for 10-20 games for not running out that grounder." Or some variation, thereof.

Montoyo's faith in Kirk has paid off. He may have been our most consistent player since that "incident(?)".

"Phill-of-shit"
You mad??? 😂

When I wrote that it was more of a knee-jerk reaction, obviously a 10-game suspension would be way too harsh.
I hope he got reprimanded back in the dressing room at the very least though

No way that I can read your mind. I can only go by what you wrote, which seemed very harsh.

Obviously a talking to in private is perfectly appropriate.

anyone still defend trading prospects and not trading for prospects with pending FAs ?
Manoah didn't look good tonight. We can trade him for some prospects.

Another solid win again today - got scary in the ninth but held on. Agree with @unassuming - trade Pearson and get anything you can get, as for Smith - give him some more time - lets see - at least give him the same time we have given Pearson :D .

Jays sweep the A's.

They have to win at least 3 of 4 against Yankees to stand a chance

Pearson is such an enigma, he was shit the other day, then he strikes out the side to close out the game today.

Orioles sweep the Yankees, and BoSox lose 11-5.

4 games out of WC spot now

Bosox lose to Indians, Jays just 2 games back of them in loss column with 4 games in hand! We're in pretty good shape going down the stretch.
Hopefully Arizona beats Mariners today.

He only started both late inning rallies in the 11-10 victory and hit a HR in yesterday's win.
Even a blind squirrel....

Can't deny his recent contributions but I still don't like him.
