Rubber Match Mindset with Ben Shulman
Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker open today's pregame episode with thoughts on the Blue Jays' 3-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays. They dive into Alejandro Kirk's clutch go-ahead home run and Anthony Santander's continued struggles catching up to fastballs, before setting up Kevin Gausman's start in this afternoon's rubber match. Ben Shulman (25:14), radio play-by-play voice of the Blue Jays, continues the conversation on Gausman and Santander. Ben also checks in on what's different with Kirk at the plate in 2025, Ernie Clement's offensive approach, Yimi Garcia's lights-out performance in the ninth, Yariel Rodriguez trending up, and Addison Barger's growth as a big leaguer.
