Eight Years Ago Today Josh Donaldson had a day. He went 4 for 4, with 2 home runs, a double, a walk, 5 runs and 4 RBI. The game itself was pretty wild. The Jays blew four different leads and came...
I had gotten tickets, a flight, and a hotel to visit Toronto to watch two Jays’ home series. The G20 Summit was to be held in Toronto then, but I had people I talked to in the front office who insisted the games would not be moved.
I guess, in retrospect, I should have started with him. Sending an email to him almost guarantees that at least his secretary will read it. If that happens there is a shot she will forward it to someone that might care. Or whose job it would become to care. He couldn’t have been nicer. We were on the phone for about 2 minutes when the fire alarm went off where his office is at Rogers Center. He tried to continue to talk but a) the alarm was loud and b) I was glad that he took the time to call but it wasn’t worth him dying in a fire. So he said he’d call back in ten and he did. I’m relatively sure the stadium didn’t burn to the ground.
As well as him helping me buy tickets for the game in Philly he offered to upgrade our tickets for the Cardinal series, which was very nice of him. So we are going to have tickets somewhere in behind the plate there. All-in-all I’m starting to look forward to the trip again. I’m giving up on the idea that we could get an interview or two while I’m there, I’m just going to enjoy the baseball.
