0:00.0	Welcome to the Boc Talk podcast on NBC Sports Bay Area.com.
0:11.1	Introducing your host, NBC Sports Bay Area's Jessica Klineschmidt.
0:16.3	Welcome back to another episode of Bof Talk presented by Wendy's.
0:19.6	New to the Wendy's two for five dollars lineup is our classic chicken sandwich.
0:23.6	The perfect balance of crispy and juicy.
0:25.7	Price and participation may vary limited time only.
0:29.4	I'm joined by the voice of the Toronto Blue Jays, Ben Wagner.
0:33.1	Ben, thanks for joining me today.

0:38.8	Yeah, and it's cool because I love, that's such a good title, the voice of the Blue Jays. And I just, I was so excited to,

1:11.7	The 2020 season was weird for everyone. But the Blue Jays are one of the teams. They're the types of
1:17.1	teams that I'm always intrigued by. Middle of the pack, make it to playoffs, but can't quite get
1:21.8	over the hump. I feel like I'm talking about maybe the A's or the Giants a little bit. So tell me your overall thoughts on the Blue Jays this
1:29.0	season. Did you, do you think they took advantage of the 60 game season or do you feel like
1:33.8	they actually could have been successful in a regular 162 game campaign? Yeah, I think without
1:40.6	a question, they took advantage of a 60 game season. And that only amplified in talking to the players and the coaches when they expanded the playoffs.
