The Jays are indeed Canada’s team, and it’s not much of an exaggeration to say the entire country held its breath before the team pulled off yet another come-from-behind victory. Beyond the stats, this is a story of a remarkable team of remarkable people. Behind the numbers, these are people who inspire. Both on and off the base paths, this is what empathy and selflessness look like - and why these traits matter as much as they do both in baseball and in life.
Still ahead lies a titanic battle against the Los Angeles Dodgers. But whatever happens next changes nothing about the character of a team even non-fans have adopted as their own.
It isn’t often that sports manages to transcend the field of play. This may be one of them, and all of Canada now has even more reason to stand by our Boys of Summer as they make their - and our - field of dreams come true.
Go Jays. Go Canada. Maybe this is now more than just a game.
