Ugly would be the perfect word to describe Sunday’s series finale between the Toronto Blue Jays and the New York Yankees in Toronto at the Rogers Centre.

Examples of the word ugly in this game included:

The New York Yankee defense, which committed four errors in the game.

Nick Swisher, who was nearly beaned in the face when he lost a ball in the sun.

Sergio Mitre, with a losing pitching line of 4.1IP, 11H, 11R, 9ER, 2BB, 5K

Brian Tallet’s winning pitching line, 5IP, 8H, 5R, 5ER, 3BB, 5K

An ugly third of an inning of relief from Yankee rookie Mark Melancon, 0.1IP, 1H, 1R, 1ER, 2BB, 1K.

The face of the young lady in the first base stands, who was hit in what looked to be the groin, by a foul ball in the sixth inning.

Remember Josh Towers? Well in his return to the Majors today, he gave Randy Ruiz facial reconstructive surgery courtesy of an inside fastball to the face.

The return of former Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Josh Towers to the Major Leagues for the New York Yankees.

Towers, who has not pitched in the Majors in over two years returned to pitch in his former home in Toronto.

Too bad Towers decided to destroy the left side of Randy Ruiz’s face on a 0-2 fastball.

Ruiz fell to the ground spitting up a pool of blood, but would be okay.

Nothing a few new teeth could not fix, as Towers prepared for a lynch mob outside the stadium after the game.

The collision between Johnny Damon and Melky Cabrera in the outfield late in the game.

Brian Wolfe’s ugly relief appearance for Toronto, 1.2IP, 4H, 3R, 3ER, 1BB, 1K

Even amidst all of the ugliness of this poorly played game, the Blue Jays came out on top in this one with a 14-8 victory and earned a split in the four game series.

Finally, positive news for a Blue Jays team that is trying to finish out the 2009 season on a high note, moving towards an off season where Blue Jays fans are hopeful of some additions to a roster that will help with the 2010 season.

The season in which the Toronto front office has said will be the one last push towards the playoffs, otherwise the rip down and rebuild will begin.

The Blue Jays begin a four game series tomorrow on Labour Day against the Minnesota Twins, who are currently battling the Detroit Tigers and the surging Chicago White Sox for the American League Central title.
