Blue Jays “Man in White” Photos?
Upon reading about the Toronto Blue Jays “stealing signs” article (which suggested a mysterious man in white was responsible for tipping off Jays hitters about which pitch was coming) I knew I had to search through my photo archives to see if I could catch this supposed incident… Well, I
Sportsnet Shows Parody Alomar Plaque in Promo
During their telecast of the Toronto Blue Jays/Texas Rangers game last night Rogers Sportsnet aired the above promo graphic advertising a Roberto Alomar television special — something about this graphic jumped out at me instantly… that’s not Alomar’s plaque, in fact it’s a parody plaque created by Onion-esque Mets fans
