The Blue Jays are a different kind of modern champion.
They aren’t all about the home run. They do more than three true outcomes, and it works for them.
Word around the game was that to win a championship you have to win the homer game (the past five champions were all top-five home run teams). Word was that it’s impossible to string hits against aces in October.
But the Blue Jays aren’t like recent champions. They are contact specialists. They get on base, and they make starters work, even great starters.
