There IS crying in baseball 😭 Also the kids doing cartwheels behind Scherzer and Springer really took it to another level!

For a season that didn’t have a lot of excitement, can’t think of a better last day with the send offs for Springer and now Scherzer. How can you not be romantic about baseball? #bluejays

Quite the send off for Springer ❤️😭

Riffing on the organ with assorted triplet patterns. #hammondorgan

Stunned to hear of the loss of Dolly Parton! Someone who transcended music and entertainment, not just by being an incredible singer, songwriter, musician and actor, but also a philanthropist, an advocate for literacy, and such a force for good in the world. RIP Dolly.

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

Here’s today’s newsletter, with a look ahead to today’s set at BD Beats, and what’s on for August and September! jessewhiteley.com/campaigns/11...

Thank Varland! Blue Jays, what are these feelings again?…hope, anxiety and then hope???

OK #bluejays. In the event there’s a 7th inning ruling delay, I’m at least expecting a full version of “OK Blue Jays” in the 7th inning stretch, with the extra verses and the bridge.

So do the #bluejays have to appeal that final out?

Then can we have a couple more outs retroactively for the 2025 World Series, please?

There are four outs in baseball. Of course there are. The fourth one is just mostly a secret to all the players and coaches and umpires and fans and anyone who has ever heard of baseball. Silly Blue Jays.

Do MLB umpires not remember how the concept of catches work?

Just when you think you’ve seen everything in baseball…there’s an ump and scoreboard show delay #bluejays

Can you name this Allen Toussaint tune? If you’ve heard me play in just about any format you’ve likely heard it in my set. One of my favourites to play, and you can hear this with a full band at The Local Pub on Ronces tomorrow (Tuesday) night at 9 w Matt Greco and Steve Briggs! See you there!

Already missing Kevin Gausman. Not only a fantastic pitcher, but everything he’s done and said off the field makes him a class act. A genuine guy who moved his family here, and got to know the city. Honestly I was heartbroken by the news of them moving out as much as the trade!

Thank you Kevin Gausman for all you’ve given #bluejays ❤️

Friday night lights aka late breaking news release. Ka boom. Toronto anger was not for naught. You moved a monolith: the Liberal caucus. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...
