Jose Bautista connected for his major league-leading 20th home run and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Chicago White Sox 9-8 today. They needed 14 innings and a Corey Patterson walkoff homer to do it.
Seems there are some Bautista haters out there. How else would you explain my poll to the right where some people have been predicting that Bautista would not hit 20 home runs this season. People he is the best hitter in baseball and he's not on your team. Deal with it.
His home run today puts him on pace to hit 70 for the season. Not likely to happen though everyone predicted he couldn't hit 50 home runs last season. He is doing with very little protection from the Jays' batting order. He is the number 3 hitter but Blue Jays have no real clean up hitter behind him after dealing away Vernon Wells. He hitting home runs at an astounding clip of one every 7.68 at-bats.
So all you Bautista haters - deal with it.
