Big Oak Blasts a Pair of Bombs, Jays Even Series vs. Twins

About this episode

Sho Alli and Kaitlyn McGrath discuss the Blue Jays' victory over the Twins, focusing on player performances and game strategies.

Sho Alli and Kaitlyn McGrath break down the Blue Jays' 7-3 win over the Twins in the second game of this four-game series! They take your calls and texts, and get to Kazuma Okamoto blasting a pair of home runs, his first career MLB multi-home run game! They discuss his offensive bounce-back, how he looks less tentative, and what his role could be going forward - how much does this help Vladimir Guerrero Jr. see better pitches in the short term? Plus, they get into Patrick Corbin's solid 5.1 IP of two-run ball, the usage of the bullpen's high leverage arms, and the outings for both Lenyn Sosa and Yohendrick Piñango.
