00:00They get nine consecutive dubs for Toronto, as we expected yesterday.

00:05DRS, a pretty hefty road favorite on the south side of Chicago against the White Sox.

00:10Jose Barrios delivers.

00:12They get plenty of action at the dish.

00:15Joey Loperfito, a home run and three RBIs, as the Blue Jays make it nine consecutive

00:20wins with an 8-4 victory over the White Sox.

00:24Toronto was a minus 168 road money line favorite.

00:27They cash that ticket.

00:29Nine wins in a row for the Blue Jays.

00:32Yeah, nine wins in a row for the Blue Jays and maybe going to make it 10 today as they

00:35face Aaron Savali, which we'll get to that a little bit later in the show.

00:38But I'm just impressed by the bats.

00:40Coming in, sometimes you take a look at teams and you equate it to like the NFL.

00:43It's like, hey, two years ago, really like the Buffalo Bills.

00:45Maybe last year you liked them as well.

00:46It's like, ooh, now they're in the background.

00:48It's like, ooh, is this the chance that they can actually step up and rise to the occasion

00:52when quote unquote nobody's watching?

00:54That's what it felt like with the Toronto Blue Jays.

00:56One of those teams over the past two to three years.

00:57Look at all that talent.

00:58They're coming into their prime right now.

01:00Now's their chance to shine.

01:02They haven't done anything.

01:03So now all of a sudden you open up this season with not a lot of high expectations.

01:07You didn't start the season all that well, but here we are.

01:10Guys that you didn't expect like the household names like Nathan Luke's playing very well.

01:13Addison Barger, fantastic.

01:15Alejandro Kirk, the catcher's been nothing sort of sensational at the plate so far.

01:18And you still mix in the guys like Vladimir Guerrero Jr., George Springer, and Bo Bichette.

01:22Maybe it's a time where it's like, okay, we're supposed to live up to the hype.

01:25We didn't in the past.

01:26Now we're playing without all that pressure on us from the past couple of years, and it's

01:29really coming to the forefront.

01:31And you can't say it enough, like heading into the all-star break, you got to keep that

01:34momentum.

01:35What's the best way to do that?

01:36Obviously play good baseball, but also who you play here.

01:38You're not playing the White Sox.

01:40You should just dismantle this team over the next couple of days and continue that win

01:43streak, which I think they will do again tonight.

01:45But it's fun watching Toronto.

01:47And the same thing with the AL East.

01:48A lot of really good hitting ballparks.

01:51If you like team totals, RBI props, base hit props, that is your division here, specifically

01:56Ben, in the summer.
