Michael Kay was 'curious' as to why the Blue Jays looked like a 'different team' at home, and fans say he was insinuating the team was cheating.
Fans have come out of the woodwork to accuse New York Yankees broadcast Michael Kay of saying one of their rivals had pulled off a huge no-no in baseball. Ironically, the Yankees found themselves in a controversy against the Toronto Blue Jays last year when Aaron Judge hit a long home run shortly after noticeably peeking toward his dugout. There was wide speculation that Judge had received a tip from someone in or near his dugout.
On Tuesday, they knocked out Carlos Rodon after just four innings of work in which he threw 101 pitches. On Wednesday, they got Marcus Stroman to throw 99 pitches in his 5.1 frames. It was already the second series between the two teams in the young season, and Kay saw a noticeable difference in the Blue Jays' offensive approach between the two series.
It should be noted that the Blue Jays actually had more foul balls and fewer swinging strikes in the three-game series in New York than the three games in Toronto ; however, their 45 foul balls on Tuesday at home were, by far, their most in a game against the Bombers this season. The Yanks avoided the sweep in Toronto after a huge ninth-inning comeback that was capped off with Judge's two-run single. The Yanks won the final game, 6-4.
