-- In case you're wondering why Girardi chose to hit for Brett Gardner, who was 2-for-3 with a run scored, and replace him with Vernon Wells against lefty reliever Aaron Loup, here is the manager's explanation: "Just looking to get a home run there, that's all." He got a three-pitch strikeout from Wells I did not, before I knew the outcome.
Probably had fond early season memories when Overbay & Wells bopped the Jays pretty well. Old Country song "Time changes everything". It's not just that, the boppers were in and found a 3 run lead insurmountable.
