Playoff Gameday Thread, #4: Four by four

After losing their first play-off game in more than two decades, the Blue Jays seek to get back on track, kicking off this full day of baseball (for those who don't have regular employment, or have very relaxed employers, at least). In the curtain-jerker, we see a pair of first-round draft picks facing off, with veteran Hamels taking on relative n00b Stroman - although the latter had just turned eleven when Hamels was drafted by the Phillies in 2002, and was still a decade from his own selection! Due to an ACL issue, Stroman made only four starts this season, but went 4-0, so Toronto will be hoping he can bring that form into the post-season.
