Gibbons dials into radio show after Blue Jays top Yanks 7-1
NEW YORK — A rare two-run sacrifice fly. Plenty of pop and pitching. Plus, a three-game winning streak for the first time in what’s been a rugged season.
It all had Toronto manager John Gibbons feeling pretty frisky — so much so, he phoned into the team’s fan reaction radio show after the Blue Jays beat the New York Yankees 7-1 Monday night.
“First-time caller,” he said from his office, without giving his name. But he did ask the host: “Is it the same bozos every night?”
OK, maybe it wasn’t such a surprise. Smiling, Gibbons said the host inquired, “Is this John from the Bronx?”
