Wow, the Jays have been unbeatable these last few games with a 12-2 record In this set of games, Chacin threw a PERFECT GAME against the Rays, and the bats were going vs. the Yankees in their first meeting of the season just destroying them 10-0. The game against the Mets was a bit closer in a 5-1 victory. Adam Lind has been a beast and now has 9 HR on the season. Its hard to tell if this pace for the Jays will keep up, so stay tuned!

Game 12: Blue Jays 6, Rays 0:
W: Chacin (2-1), L: Shields (2-1)
Blue Jays:
Escobar - 2/3 2RBI, R
Johnson - 1/3 R
Bautista - 2/2 RBI, R
Lind - 1/2 HR(7), 3RBI, R
Rasmus - 1/2 2B, R
Francisco - 0/0 BB, R
Chacin - 5IP 0H, 0ER, 2L!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rays:
Shields - 1IP 4H, 4ER

Wow, the first perfect game I have ever played on a baseball game using the same difficulty sliders I have always used. I was wondering if this was a bit unrealistic but I noticed that the Jays are ranked 91 overall and realized that they have a good rated team in this game and a nice lineup. Since this is a fantasy franchise I do want to win and not loose so I am good with it. For the offense, 4 of the runs came in inning 1, as the Jays chased Shields from the game starting with a Bautista RBI single followed by a Lind 3 Run HR. Escobar drove in 2 Runs with a single later in the 4th to end the game 6-0 Jays.

Game 13: Blue Jays 10, Yankees 0:
W: Alvarez (2-0), L: Kuroda (1-2)
Blue Jays:
Escobar - 1/2 2RBI, R
Bautista - 2/3 2R
Lind - 3/3 HR(8), 2RBI, 2R
Lawrie - 3/3 RBI, 3B, 2R
Cuddyer - 1/3 2RBI, 2B, R
Arencieba - 2/3 2RBI, R
Rasmus - 1/3 RBI, R, 2B, SB
Alvarez - 4IP 3H, 0ER, 3K
Yankees:
Kuroda - 1.2IP 7H, 6ER, BB
Robertson - 1.2IP 8H, 3ER

- The Bats really shook up the Yankees as they had no answer for Toronto in the first meeting between these 2 teams. Alvarez pitched a 3 hit shutout and fanned 3. The team got to Kuroda first and then Robertson as neither could stop the offense. 2nd Inning it all fell apart for New York as Lind got it started with a 2-Run HR, followed by a Cuddyer 2 RBI single, Arencieba 2 RBI single and Rasmus RBI double to make it 7-0. The rest came in the 4th as Escobar hit a 2 RBI single, and Lawrie drove in 1 Run with his triple.

Game 14: Blue Jays 5, Mets 1:
W: Cecil (2-0), L: Mejia (0-1) SV: Cordero (1)
Blue Jays:
Bautista - 1/2 HR(3), RBI, R
Lind - 2/2 HR(9), RBI, 2R
Arencieba - 1/2 HR(3), 2RBI, R
Rasmus - 1/2 R, 3B
Thames - 1/2 RBI
Cecil - 3.2IP 2H, 1ER, 1K
Mets:
Wright - 1/2 HR, RBI, R
Mejia - 4IP 8H, 5ER

- The Jays continue this massive winning streak behind Cecils 3.2 inning 1 Run game while only allowing 2 hits, 1 which was at the expense of a Wright Solo HR in the 4th. In the 1st, Lind and Bautista each hit Solo HR's, and Lind's was his 3rd consecutive HR and number 9 on the season. Later in the 4th, after Wright HR made it 2-1, the Jays answered with Arencieba's 2 Run HR, and Thames RBI single to drive in Rasmus who was on 3rd from a triple. Final score 5-1.
