Bird Feed:
On Friday, designated hitter Adam Lind was out of the Blue Jays' starting lineup for the second successive game after being struck on the right elbow by a pitch on Tuesday in Boston. With an off-day on Thursday, Lind hoped to be able to play on Friday in Baltimore, but was still feeling some discomfort in his arm. Lind, who is batting .305 with 35 home runs and 114 RBIs, said he hopes to play again in the final two games. ... Despite appearing in just 31 games this season, Randy Ruiz has belted 10 home runs for the Jays. He reached double digits with a solo shot in the fourth inning against the Orioles on Friday. ... The Jays connected for 13 homers in their three-game sweep of the Red Sox earlier this week, marking the most homers in a three-game series in club history. ... The Blue Jays have topped 200 home runs in a season for only the fifth time in franchise history. ... Hill's 36 homers are the third most in one season for an American League second baseman. Alfonso Soriano belted 39 in 2002 and 38 in '03 while with the Yankees. ... Ace Roy Halladay has notched 24 consecutive shutout innings, dating back to Sept. 20. That is the best such run of Halladay's career.
