The Toronto Blue Jays are a Canadian professional baseball team based in Toronto, Ontario. The Blue Jays are a member of the East division of the American League (AL) in Major League Baseball (MLB), and play their home games at Rogers Centre.
The "Blue Jays" name originates from the bird of the same name, and blue is also the traditional colour of two of Toronto's other professional sports teams: the Maple Leafs (ice hockey) and the Argonauts (Canadian football). In addition, the team was originally owned by the Labatt Brewing Company, makers of the popular beer Labatt's Blue. Colloquially nicknamed the "Jays", the team's official colours are royal blue, navy blue, red, and white. An expansion franchise, the club was founded in Toronto in 1977. Originally based at Exhibition Stadium, the team began playing its home games at the SkyDome, upon its opening in 1989. Since 2000, the Blue Jays have been owned by Rogers Communications and in 2004, the SkyDome was purchased by that company, which it renamed Rogers Centre. They are the second MLB franchise to be based outside the United States, and currently the only team based outside the US after the first Canadian franchise, the Montreal Expos, relocated to Washington, D.C. after the 2004 season and became the Washington Nationals.
J.A. Happ chose to return to the Toronto Blue Jays in the offseason as a free agent. And after 20 wins and a postseason berth, he hasn't looked back and has zero regrets.

John Gibbons toasted his team, telling them that opponents will need to watch out for them before the Blue Jays popped the corks to celebrate their home wildcard berth in the postseason.

WATCH: Yankees, Blue Jays involved in benches-clearing benches-clearingafter trading HBPs Monday night in Toronto, the Yankees and Blue Jays are wrapping up their season series with the fourth game of a four-game series. The Blue Jays are 12-6 against their division rivals from New York this year, and they've won the first three games of this weekend's series as well. Things got a little heated Monday night between the two AL East rivals. It started with a first inning hit-by-pitch; Luis Severino ran a fastball inside and plunked Josh Donaldson in the elbow guard. Severino, who has struggled with his location all year, walked two batters later in the inning as well. Blue Jays lefty J.A. Happ responded in the next half inning by hitting Chase Headley in the leg. He threw his first pitch beh...

Dingers + pitching = Jays (who needs adequate defense) As of August 31st: 76-57, 1st Place | Record in August: 17-11 Somewhat ironically, last year's grip on the division felt a lot stronger despite not actually being in 1st place. The starting pitching and defense have shown cracks, only heightening the need for the offense to return to 2015. Regardless, Martin has finally gone full Tulo and is rounding into form at the right time. October is undoubtedly within reach Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bluejaysboysofsummer/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music: 1.

Philadelphia Phillies 6 at Toronto Blue Jays 8, F -- Facing elimination, the Phillies trailed by four in the seventh. But they battled back to score five runs -- three of them courtesy of a Lenny Dykstra homer -- to take a 6-5 lead into the bottom of the ninth. That's when the Wild Thing, Mitch Williams, trotted out to close the door on the Jays. Instead, he put two men on for Joe Carter, who slammed the first come-from-behind, Series-winning homer in baseball history.

On Lover's Island
Where the trees stand so tall
And the dust turn to gold
And love never grows old
On Lover's Island
Where the birds sing of love
Seems a gift from up above
I met her one day
(Met her one day)
As we stood alone on the mountain
Under the moon and stars above
Oh, darling, don't ever go
She was Venus, the goddess of love
On Lover's Island
Where the trees stand so tall
And the dust turn to gold
And love never, never
Never, never grows old
