Anyone know a place I can get streaming radio for Jays games on iPhone? most radio stations (Fan 590 included) don't seem to allow internet streaming of the games. And my employer blocks streaming radio.

Try mlb.com's app? I'm pretty sure you can get radio streams on their site...

I have a feeling this is going to be a hell of a year for the Jays. Team is so energetic, and we have the pitchers to go deep in games as we've already seen.
I see the new closer has the same ailment that the Jays old clsoers had.
Some things never change.
A friend of mine has converted me into thinking that the closer is the worst, most fake position in all of sports.
Let's call your closer what he is: your bullpen ace.
So other than for flair, why wouldn't you use your bullpen ace at the most important point in the game? Not to say that closing out a game isn't difficult, mentally or physically. But if you have the bases loaded with 1 out in the 6th, wouldn't that be a better time to use your best pitcher, rather than at the end of a game with a 3 run lead?
I also understand that some pitchers work better with the bases empty for various reasons (mentally, high pop-up rate), but for the most part, your closer is unequivocally your best bullpen arm and your best chance to get a few important outs. Especially with a pen like the Jays have, there's no reason why any of them should be labeled one way or another.
And in the third game of the series the Jays are trailing 2-0 in the top of the 4th.
Another comeback? More extra innings?
And the Jays again take advantage - Indians SS bobbles a grounder, Encarnacion drives in one run and Brett Lawrie with a sacrifice fly brings in the tying run in a close play at the plate with Lind sliding under the tag.
The Jays are playing efficient baseball and taking advantage of their chances while being aggressive and starting runners. Excellent base running.
2-2 bottom of the 4th.

I am just watching the SF Giants taking on the Arizona Diamondbacks being played at Chase Field in Phoenix. The sign behind home plate is for Dr. Schwartz, an eye doctor. You just cannot make up stuff like that.
