MLB Toronto Blue Jays vs Tempa Bay Devil Rays
As Roy Halladay stepped off the mound and walked back towards Toronto's dugout, the fans inside Rogers Centre erupted with a loud round of boos. The negative reaction stemmed from the outing that he had turned in. The crowd wanted more.
It was the fans' way of pleading with Toronto manager John Gibbons to leave Halladay in. After all, the Jays' ace was just one out away from his third complete game of the season. Instead, those in attendance had to settle for an overpowering strikeout from closer B.J. Ryan, who sealed a 4-1 win over Tampa Bay and picked up his 11th save of the season.
