Toronto Blue Jays Manager John Gibbons told Jeff Blair of The Globe and Mail before today’s game against the Tampa Bay Rays that the Jays needed a walk-off win to give them a jolt.
Gibbons’ plea became prophesy as the Jays completed a wild comeback in the bottom of the 10th on a Jose Bautista walk-off single. Bautista also had two home runs in the game and had all four Jay RBIs.
