9th inning: Jays at Rays

Grant Balfour is on the mound for the second straight inning for the Rays. Didn't he used to play goalie in the NHL for someone? No, the roster says he's from Glenwood, Australia. He'd have to be an Aussie. No way an American kid grows up playing baseball with a name like Balfour. He'd be called Ball-four so much he'd give up the sport for sure. Or at least become an outfielder.

Well, he's looking like Mariano Rivera, shutting the Blue Jays down in order in the ninth. That's it. Rays win! Rays win! Rays win! Final score 8-4. I'll be back for a final wrap as soon as I do some postgame interviews.
