Two more accomplishments in this early and unbelievable and unbelievably early 2009 Jays season:
- First series sweep; thanks Baltimore for settling who the worst team in the AL East will be, no matter what happens the rest of the way for the Jays.
- Responding when faced with real adversity; dropping three of four to the Royals could have sent the team into a tailspin, and instead they bounce back in a big way.
Plus Alex Rios and Vernon Wells went yard in the same game for the second time this season, which is already two more times than all of 2008.
And thanks to the Dome and its waterproof roof, the Jays won't be scrambling to make up rainouts later in the season, which can go a long way. That's rare praise for the Rogers Cavern but it's pretty much the only good thing you can say about it nowadays (that and cheap hot dog nights).
Up next are two at home against a struggling Cleveland club and then a five-game west coast roadie in L.A. and Oakland; three straight series against below .500 clubs.
This team could have 25 or even 30 (!) wins by Victoria Day. Wow.
