Toronto Throws

The Toronto Blue Jays show off their arms in the top of the fifth. McDonald made a great throw from deep in the hole to nip A-Rod at first. Then for the second time tonight, Posada gets thrown out trying to stretch a double into a double. Rios got him in the fifth, and Reed Johnson caught him earlier. Finally, McDonald makes another nice play in the hole to force a runner at second to end the inning. The defense kept a 4-0 Yankees lead from expanding.

Yeah, the Jays also did some throwing at Yankee batters. But the Yanks threw better tonight, I'd say: Clemens got a retaliation ejection, and Joba Chamberlain had a nice, if slightly nervous, debut (2K, 2BB 1H 0 R in 1 IP). He hit 98 on the gun a couple of times.
