Episode Two: The roster
In this episode, we’ll meet some of the 1985 Blue Jays roster and learn about their unique paths to becoming part of the organization.
For Jays’ fans today, they might be getting tired of hearing about players choosing not to sign with the franchise for plenty of reasons… Perhaps the stories in thi…
Episode One: The Architect builds a franchise
Before an expectation of success and championships… The Toronto Blue Jays were an expansion team looking for an identity.
A team that played its first regular season game in the snow, on a field originally used as a racetrack and football field. In a stadium on the shores of Lake Ontario.
After nea…
Episode Seven: Just one more
Toronto sports fans love the Jays, and they love a winner. In the franchise’s first ten years, only four times was their attendance below the league average.

We’ll hear about an infamous karate-kick, the emergence of a closer and a g…
Episode Eight: Forty years later
Looking back at the ’85 season, most Jays’ fans will remember how it ended rather than how the team got to the brink of their first World Series.
A special team… led by extraordinary coaches and an equally impressive front office. Together, that team and in particular that season would galvanize a …
