I believe there are several different colours, bright blue, lime green, and even a gold VIP version I think!

This was before my time, but one of my in-laws was at The Ex for Blue Jays Opening Day in '77. They gifted me this gorgeous Opening Game ticket, which is a work of art.

Really makes you long for the days of physical tickets, doesn't it?

10 years after Canada upset the USA in pool play in the World Baseball Classic, Canada moves on to the quarter final for the first time.

It felt like it might never get better for Canada than that win over USA in 2006, but this WBC performance set a new benchmark for Canada.

Missed this from last week, but Vladimir Guerrero Jr. had an amazing quote about his gameplan last postseason.

"In the playoffs, I know they're going to pitch around me. I just tried to pick a zone, and if you come in that zone, I'm raking."
