Lots of great baseball news

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. becomes youngest MLB All-Star Game MVP after hitting 468-foot homer at Coors Field.

Jim was doing his Spanish class so didn't see the fabulous home run he hit. 

And the Blue Jays beat the Texas Rangers 10-2. yesterday.  

But the best news of all is that the Blue Jays will return to Rogers Centre in Toronto to play home games in Canada  starting on July 30. The club has received a national interest exemption from the federal government that will allow players from the Blue Jays and other teams to travel into the country.

Rogers Centre has a roof that can be used when it rains so no cancellations of games.  The Tampa Bay Rays are the only other team to have a covered stadium and the roof is permanent so the games can never be played in the open air.
