Tires of having clenched cheeks when he comes in during a tie game.

~~I think he's been walked off 7 times in 41 appearances this season. 5 of those 7 times were non-save situations. He also blew one win.~~

Blue Jays have won 34/41 (83%) games Jordan's appeared in. His save rate, as @[email protected] mentioned, is 26/29 (90%). If my math's right, that means the Jays have won 8/12 (67%) of times Jordan's appeared in non-save situations.

The Jays have been walked off 4 times this year, and Romano is behind 3 or the 4:
-Game 21 - Sat, Apr 22 - Tor @ NYY (Romano)
-Game 29 - Mon, May 1 - Tor @ BOS (Romano)
-Game 37 - Wed, May 10 - Tor @ PHI (Mayza)
-Game 98 - Fri, Jul 21 - Tor @ SEA (Romano)

I think he's a great closer, but he has difficulties with non-save situations. Last night's L was on our offence though, IMO. There is no margin for pitching error when we have only 2 runs. If we'd managed to put up more runs, Yusei might not have got the early hook either
