Reviews
""The fact that few members of the 2025 Jays squad were Canadians seemed not to matter. They were our boys and we loved them all. And they sure acted Canadian. It would be hard to find a nicer group of pro athletes, a perfect storm of Canadian niceness, talent and grit. They even had a bona fide hockey player in the person of Rochester's Ernie Clement who kept a hockey stick in his locker. More importantly they openly expressed their love for Toronto and Canada. In short, they really seemed to get us, eh? These insightful words about the 2025 Blue Jays from author Jim Prime are just a glimpse of the joy I got from reading his wonderful book."" --Jerry Howarth, Blue Jays broadcaster for 36 years ""There is no better story in sport than the underdog rising up to punch the bully in the nose. That means the Toronto Blue Jays were the story of baseball stories last year with their post-season triumph over the New York Yankees (traditional bully) and their agonizing, but wonderful battle with the Los Angeles Dodgers (modern bully) that went to the 11th inning of a final seventh game in the most exciting World Series finish in history. Talk about tales from the dugout!!! Read. Enjoy. "" --Leigh Montville, New York Times bestselling author of The Big Bam and Ted Williams
