EDIT: Yeah baby! See you guys next year! Stinks about price doing so poorly in the post season... What doesn't stink is the Royals in the WS!

Price wasn't that bad, the Jays lack of fundamentals and inability to play small ball was what hurt them, they were also 0-11 with RISP. In tight postseason games you have to score runs when you have leadoff doubles, back to back walks, 1st and 3rd none out, and the Jays didn't do that.

One big thing is team dynamics. The Royals trust each other, Yost (teh manager) trusts his players too, which is huge. The Blue Jays have a ton of really good players, but they just don't seem to jell.

0-11 with RISP is pretty bad... That's another difference between the teams, the Royals feed off of each others hits. Also that possible fan interference... Oh gosh. I'm not convinced that it would have gone over. Plus Erin (if you were watching on sports net, she is a field reporter for fox, interviews the managers and players, and did an interview wit the guy who caught that ball) saying he was from Blue Springs Kansas... Fail. Blue Springs Kanasas is not a place. Missouri on the other hand...

It would really helpful to the organization team if people pay on-line here.

And if you are planning to buy merchandise from Cubing Out Loud use the discount code: TOF2015. Doing so will waive the shipping fee and you can pick-up your order at Toronto Open Fall 2015.

By paying on-line you can skip the insane lineups during the morning rush and make the organization team's lives a lot easier. :)
