'I Love this team' Blue Jays fans share excitement ahead of final week of the season

After having missed the postseason in 2024 and with expectations guarded heading in 2025, Blue Jay fever is sweeping the nation, with fans excited that Canada's team could garner their first division title in a decade.

It would also also afford them a first round bye, allowing them to skip the Wildcard round, which has been previously unkind to them.

CP24's Melissa Duggan spoke to several fans prior to the opening of their series against the Kansas City Royals.

The Blue Jays have always been known as Canada's team. Yet, many of the people Duggan spoke to, were internationals, many of whom were new to Toronto and new to the Blue Jays.

Duggan acknowledged as much.

While Friday night's game against the Royals was one to forget - starter Max Scherzer couldn't get out of the first inning after giving up seven runs - their lead in the AL East is still three games, after the New York Yankees lost to the Baltimore Orioles 4-2.

While the Blue Jays may not have sealed the deal yet, fans have every reason to be pumped.
