Rays Ruin Mark Buehrle's Last Game With First Grand Slam Of The Season
The Rays haven’t had a great season. They’ll finish with a losing record, even after they most likely beat the Blue Jays today. Remarkably, Tampa Bay went the first 161 games never hitting a grand slam, despite 142 plate appearances with the bases loaded. That changed today when Joey Butler went dee...

The Blue Jays Partied Extremely Hard After Winning The AL East
Even by the standard of normally raucous division-clinching celebrations, the Blue Jays went a little crazy tonight after beating the Orioles 15-2 in Baltimore. I guess that’s what you do when you haven’t won a division title or even been to the playoffs in 23 years....

Ben Revere Blows Water Jug Bath, Dumps It All Over Himself
Josh Donaldson’s solo home run gave the Blue Jays a walkoff win over the Rays Sunday, and that’s lovely, but let’s talk about Ben Revere’s water-dumping skills. The outfielder was so excited about the opportunity to dump the jug on his teammates that he totally fucked it up....
Sebastian Giovinco Continues To Tear Up MLS
Sebastian Giovinco scored a pair of goals and assisted another today as Toronto FC beat the Colorado Rapids 3-1. Both scores were fairly simple for Giovinco, on account of the massive gaps defenders left him, but he got himself to the right spot with ease each time. He continues to be at the center ...

Storm of Flying Hats Delays Blue Jays Game
The Blue Jays are in the process of putting a whooping down on the Rangers Tigers, led by Edwin Encarnacion and his nine RBIs.

And Now, The Rare Sacrifice Fly Scored By A Man From Second Base
Tigers center fielder Anthony Gose caught a long fly from Josh Donaldson during fourth inning action in Toronto today and casually started jogging back to the dugout. That’d be fine, except it wasn’t the third out of the inning—and the Blue Jays had Ryan Goins on second base....
The Blue Jays Are Gonna Cut You Down
One creative Blue Jays fan edited together every team home run (through Aug. 26) and set it to Johnny Cash’s version of “God’s Gonna Cut You Down” for an oddly captivating compilation. You’ll find something new to watch with every viewing....
Jose Bautista Gives Up An Inside-The-Park Home Run
Jose my friend, what’s going on here? Delino DeShields got the easiest and silliest three RBIs of his career here thanks to Bautista’s drive-by defending. Lost in the folly of the Blue Jays outfielding is the absolute clinic third base coach Tony Beasley is putting on here to usher in all three of t...
Jose Bautista Is Boycotting The Blue Jays' Broadcaster Over The Cost Of A Rookie's Suit
The Toronto Star reports, and Jose Bautista confirms, that the Blue Jays slugger has been boycotting Sportsnet since the broadcaster forced rookie Devon Travis to pay for a suit he purchased as part of a “makeover” segment aired three months ago....
Jose Reyes Is Not Enjoying His Time With The Rockies

C.C. Sabathia Restrained From Brawl Outside Nightclub
The Yankees were in Toronto last weekend for a three-game set against the Blue Jays, which presented players with ample opportunity to enjoy the Toronto nightlife. Unfortunately for pitcher C.C. Sabathia, one night out almost ended in him getting caught up in a street brawl....
The Blue Jays Are Killing Everyone, And Why Wouldn't They Be?
One of the more frustrating things in baseball over the past few years has been watching the perpetually okay Toronto Blue Jays continue to be nothing more than just okay, because in a sports landscape populated by mountebanks who preach the virtues of losing, they’ve actively been trying to win, wh...
Russell Martin Chases Pop-Up Over Dugout Railing, Almost Eats It
Russell, my man. Your team is on an eight-game winning streak, it’s the first inning, and you’re playing against the sadsack A’s. Don’t throw it all away getting injured trying to catch a foul ball!...
Are The Blue Jays Gonna Do It?
Since they traded for Troy Tulowitzki just 10 days ago, the Toronto Blue Jays have surged into the final wild card spot and halved their deficit to the Yankees in the AL East. Friday kicked off a crucial weekend series between the two teams, the first of 13 games they’ll play between now and the end...
Kevin Pillar Lays Out For Another Amazing Catch
Earlier this season we saw Kevin Pillar scramble up the SkyDome wall to take away a homer, and now he’s laying out with Michael Jordan-like hang time to catch a ball he has no business catching. According to a variety of defensive metrics Pillar ranks around the 20th best defensive outfielder in bas...
Onside Punt Touchdown Is A True Gift From Canada
Canada’s been leaving us some crappy gifts lately, but here’s something from tonight’s Toronto-Hamilton game that might perk your ears up: an onside punt touchdown, unique to the Canadian game and something we strongly encourage Roger Goodell to unilaterally write into American Football’s rules....
