With the Blue Jays' game rained out, Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker look back on their series-opening loss to the Baltimore Orioles. They discuss Brett Bateman's injury, Pete Alonso getting the better of Tyler Rogers, Trey Yesavage's performance in his return, early impressions of José Rodríguez, what is still left to learn with five days left in the regular season, and the uncertainties clouding the Blue Jays' offseason. Later, WEEI's Rob Bradford stops by (30:26) to discuss Red Sox manager Chad Tracy's newly signed extension, the catalyst behind Boston's turnaround this season, the state of their bullpen ahead of the postseason, and why they have a chance to go on a deep run.
