Toronto Blue Jays stars George Springer and Ernie Clement are known for their versatility on the baseball diamond, but they just learned that they can’t play any position they want in every situation.
George Springer and Ernie Clement attended the Toronto Maple Leafs‘ home game against the New York Rangers on Wednesday, wearing personalized Leafs jerseys complete with their own last names on the back and their own Toronto Blue Jays uniform numbers.
As it turns out, however, they initially sat in the wrong seats, and had to be directed by a member of the Scotiabank Arena personnel to their correct seats partway through the game.

You’d think there could have been a little more love for Springer and Clement.
After all, they will forever go down in Blue Jays lore for their contributions to Toronto’s amazing 2025 run.
Clement, who also plays hockey, and a big fan of the sport, set the all-time single-postseason MLB record with 30 knocks during the Blue Jays’ run to Game 7 of the World Series.
Springer, a longtime playoff legend, hit an unforgettable three-run dinger in Game 7 of the ALCS, which propelled Toronto past the Mariners to the AL pennant and to its first trip to the World Series since 1993. He then followed that homer up by hitting .381 in the Fall Classic.
Next time these two show up at a Maple Leafs game, we say they can sit wherever they want.
