25 of the 26 players on Toronto’s World Series roster are not Canadian. And yet, many have developed a sense of national pride.
I asked a bunch of them what it’s like to represent a country that you aren’t from.
Jackie Robinson Day is pure celebration — and that’s the problem.
Wrote about how MLB's unwillingness to connect the larger lessons of Jackie's life to the current moment is a disappointing missed opportunity.
