It iiiiiiiis Sportsfeld Storytime. This month, Jake and Zubes take a trip all the way back to August of 2015 to talk about a team that doesn't get enough press, the 2015 Toronto Blue Jays. Before the bat flip, before the AL East title, before the heartbreak, the focus was on one man and his Blue Jays debut. Yes, we are talking about the one, the only David Price. Take yourself back to a Monday afternoon game in early August to a sold out Skydome and David Price's first start as a Blue Jay. In the first episode, the guys take a look at where the 2015 Blue Jays were before the Price trade, talk some run differential, and talk some Troy Tulowitzki.

It isssssss Sportsfeld Storytime. In Part 2 of our look back at Game 6 of the 1993 World Series, we try to remember the 1993 ALCS, which was apparently a series that was played. We also talk about just absolutely hating the Philadelphia Phillies, especially Curt Schilling. We still hate Curt Schilling. And we discuss Game 4 of the 1993 World Series, one of the craziest baseball games of all-time that surely would kill us if we had to experience it as adults.

It’s May 2001. The Raptors are still the youngest franchise in the NBA and have yet to earn respect around the league. Their previous season ended with a sweep courtesy of the New York Knicks, and in the offseason they lost budding star Tracy McGrady to the Orlando Magic. But there’s hope in the air.

Vince Carter has emerged as a star, and carried the Raptors to a franchise best 47-35 regular season record. They avenged their loss to the Knicks by defeating them in the 1st round, advanced to face superstar Allen Iverson and the Philadelphia 76ers. The series is absolutely bonkers, with the two future hall of famers trading 50 point scoring outputs and late game heroics, all setting the stage for Game 7 in Philadelphia.

In this Sportsfeld Storytime series, relive the most infamous shot in franchise history (at the time), and the most controversial graduation ceremony in sports history, as Jake and Zubes tell the story of Game 7 of the 2001 Eastern Conference Semi-Final.

It's 2002 and there's a thick layer of hope wafting in the air around the Air Canada Centre. The Leafs have finished 2nd in the East, only one point back of the Bruins. Mats Sundin is the highest scoring centre in the league and has led the team to their 4th consecutive playoff appearance. The supporting cast is stronger than ever with Darcy Tucker, Gary Roberts and Alexander Mogilny upfront, Tomas Kaberle & Bryan McCabe on the blue line, and Curtis Joseph manning the net.

After a hard fought 7-game series win against the New York Islanders in the first round, the Leafs are bruised, but ready to battle against the upstart Ottawa Senators, who feature young talent like Daniel Alfredsson, Marian Hossa and an oversized defensemen named Zdeno Chara.

Join Jake & Zubes as they take us back to a time when the entire province was waiting on every puck drop and the Cup looked right within our grasp.

At the start of a new year, we're going back to where it all started for us as sports fans: the incredible 1993 Toronto Blue Jays. In this episode we sort through the 1993 regular season, remember that kids under 10 don't remember regular seasons, gaze in wonderment at John Olerud and Paul Molitor, and shake our heads at the idea of adding Rickey Henderson to a championship level roster. Ah, 1993. The Maple Leafs are great, the Blue Jays are unbeatable, and we don't have to go to work or pay rent or make our own food. It'll be like this forever!

This week on Sportsfeld Storytime, we finish up our look back at the legendary 2015 Toronto Blue Jays and their most legendary moment, The Bat Flip. In Episode 4, we dive into what happened after the bat was flipped, including a brief but wonderful rivalry with the Texas Rangers, a schoolyard brawl, and the Blue Jays ending the Rangers season once again with another legendary moment, the Donaldson Dash.

This week we arrive at the definitive Blue Jays moment of this century Jose Bautista, the talisman for this era of the team caps off the craziest hour of playoff baseball we've ever seen with an emphatic home run in the biggest moment. We revisit the series of events that included a never-before-seen error by Russell Martin, a baby (?) getting hit by beer (?), and Elvis Andrus being cursed beyond a shadow of a doubt by the Baseball Gods, with three straight dropped balls to set the stage for the God King himself. You've probably heard the clip 500 times in your life by now, and we're giving you an excuse to make it 501.

This week on Sportsfeld Storytime, we continue our look back at, perhaps, the most legendary moment in Blue Jays history, Jose Bautista and his wonderful bat flip. This week we discuss how the actual most legendary moment in Blue Jays history has become overshadowed by Jose's blast. Plus, we relive some Josh Donaldson heroics, and realize that it's always a good time to talk about Jose Bautista punking the Orioles. Just don't throw at him! It's not hard.

We've finally arrived at the defining moment of the modern Toronto Blue Jays. In 2015 the Jays made a handful of major moves in the offseason to announce that they were serious about contending for a wide-open American League East division. Before Price and Tulo, the Jays made their intentions known by filling two major gaps that the 2014 team needed filled in a major way: catcher and third base. The Jays paid big money for a free agent to bring Canadian Russell Martin home, then took a calculated risk to ship popular star Brett Lawire to the Oakland Athletics for Josh Donaldson. Even though we know how it turns out, there was plenty of doubt around the team's ability to build a winner, and whether these were the right pieces to gamble with.

This week on Sportsfeld Storytime, we wrap up our look back at the 2014 Blue Jays and their epic 19-inning win over the Detroit Tigers. This week we look at what came after those 19 innings and it was... nothing good. As the Blue Jays limped to the finish, another peak Jose Bautista year wasted, the Blue Jays knew something had to change. And something did, all sparked by trading beloved Brett Lawrie for future MVP Josh Donaldson. What a time to be alive, indeed.

Our look back at the 2014 Blue Jays, the team that didn't go all in when they could've, hits its pinnacle with the last good moment of the Jays season. A marathon six and a half hour, 19-inning game that ends with a walk off bases loaded single from Jose Bautista. This win, which probably should've kicked off a streak, actually started them down the path of falling out of contention, and is probably the last great moment of the season. Hey remember when extra inning games could go on forever? How many of the 46,000+ fans in attendance that day stuck around for all 19 innings? How many times did the Jays put a ton of Tigers runners on base in the extra 10 innings? Find out as we look back on Sportsfeld Storytime.

This week on Sportsfeld Storytime we continue our look back at the 2014 Blue Jays and their momentous 19 inning win over the Tigers in August, as well as their inevitable collapse. In Part 2, we take you to April of 2014, optimism is in the air, the Blue Jays are playing great despite not really having an infield, and then action at the trade deadline, or lack thereof, sends the season off the rails. The lesson here, as always, is Jose Bautista was right.

The question about which is the most frustrating Blue Jays season we can remember has come up recently, and we've got to give it up for the 2014 Blue Jays team that frustrated all of us and the entire clubhouse by refusing to make a major move at the deadline. To get there, we start by looking at the big transaction that made us believe in the first place, a massive off-season deal with the Miami Marlins and a follow up trade for reigning Cy Young winner R.A. Dickey that immediately changed the expectations around the team.

Plus we discuss the legacy of Chris Bosh, close the book on the Brian Colangelo era, and welcome DeMar DeRozan.

All the focus in the series was on Vincent Lamar Carter (three names, like a serial killer) but it ended up being Richard Jefferson who put the dagger through the heart of the Toronto Raptors and their fans. An unexpected playoff run with a young team ended with a six game loss to the New Jersey Nets, and the big question is... Did the Raptors learn anything or grow or really build anything out of this? Why do I get the feeling the answer is no. Ah, well. Nevertheless.

This week on Sportsfeld Storytime we continue our look back at Game 6 of the 2007 NBA Playoff first round matchup between the Toronto Raptors and the New Jersey Nets. But first, we take a little detour and reminisce about the legend that is Chuck Swirsky and discuss his impact on Raptors fandom in the dark days of the mid-2000s. Then, we begin our look at Games 1 through 5 of the Raptors' first playoff series in five years. A series a long time in the making and an early example of the Raptors Game 1 curse.

A franchise in search of direction after the departure of the only good thing that had ever happened to them, the 2006-07 Toronto Raptors entered the season with a clear leader in Bryan Colangelo, and had the 1st overall pick to boot. A surprise run to a division title and a season to remember, which came to a poetic end at the hands of Vincent Lamar Carter. Relive the beginning of the Bargnani Era, in look back at the 2007 Toronto Raptors.

This week on Sportsfeld Storytime, we finish our look back at Game 1 of the 2018 Eastern Conference Semifinals between the Toronto Raptors and the Cleveland Cavaliers. This week, we look at the aftermaths of the Raptors' devastating loss in Game 1 by being absolutely demoralized by LeBron James, given hope by OG Anunoby, and demoralized by LeBron James once again. This was the height of LeBronto, and the end of the DeMar DeRozan and Dwane Casey era of the Raptors. But we all know what would happen next.

JUST TIP IT IN, JONAS! This week on storytime, we relive the unbelievable heartbreaker in Game 1 of the Toronto Raptors second round matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Trying desperately to reverse the "LeBronto" reputation, the Toronto Raptors lead for nearly all of regulation, before missing 11 straight shots down the stretch including 5 attempts in the final seconds to win the game. Instead, LeBron and the Cavs would win in OT and completely dismantle the DeMar DeRozan era.

This week on Sportsfeld Storytime, we continue our look back at the 2018 Toronto Raptors defeat at the hands of LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. This week, we're looking back with rose-coloured glasses at the Raptors first round victory over the hated Washington Wizards. Kelly Oubre Jr. talked a good game, but it was the Raptors who came out on top. We believed in the Bench Mob. We believed in the Raptors. And, for one shining moment, we believed in DeMar DeRozan.

The 2017-18 Toronto Raptors had everything. An 11 man rotation, the top seed in the Eastern Conference, the NBA Coach of the Year, an All-Star guard duo, and a run of year-by-year success that seemed to be growing towards them finally getting over the hump and winning the East. The only problem? LeBron Raymone James Sr. In this month's Storytime we relive the 2017-18 season, culminating in the series of missed tip-ins that keep the Raps from winning Game 1 against Cleveland and ultimately bringing in the need for a major shakeup in the organization. In part one, we look back at the regular season, where the Raptors ride continuity to the top of the standings, and two big games in January have us dreaming that maybe it's not so crazy that they can go toe-to-toe with the King.

This week on Sportsfeld Storytime, we wrap up our look back at the 2017 Toronto FC season, capped by their historic run in the 2018 CONCACAF Champions League. We are talking wins over Tigres, Club América, and then the devastating loss in the final against Guadalajara. All of that, plus we dig into why the 2019 MLS Cup Final just...didn't seem like that big a deal in Toronto. It's a weird time to be a Toronto FC fan, and we're going to try and figure out why that is. Because we're very, very smart.

Sweet, sweet revenge. Toronto FC cap off a season for the ages with an incredible and dominant win over the Seattle Sounders at BMO Field in the 2017 MLS Cup Final. We relieve the game, the celebration, and the relief that Jozy Altidore brings to the masses with this Cup clinching goal on that fateful December night. With three trophies already in the bag, Toronto FC and then sets sight on taking home the CONCACAF Champions League.

It's 2002 and there's a thick layer of hope wafting in the air around the Air Canada Centre. The Leafs have finished 2nd in the East, only one point back of the Bruins. Mats Sundin is the highest scoring centre in the league and has led the team to their 4th consecutive playoff appearance. The supporting cast is stronger than ever with Darcy Tucker, Gary Roberts and Alexander Mogilny upfront, Tomas Kaberle & Bryan McCabe on the blue line, and Curtis Joseph manning the net.

After a hard fought 7-game series win against the New York Islanders in the first round, the Leafs are bruised, but ready to battle against the upstart Ottawa Senators, who feature young talent like Daniel Alfredsson, Marian Hossa and an oversized defensemen named Zdeno Chara.

This week on Sportsfeld Storytime, we continue our look back at the 2017 Toronto FC road to MLS Cup. This week, we're looking at two nail-biting playoff series against the New York Red Bulls and the Columbus Crew. We're talking Jozy's dominance, Giovinco's brilliance, and also the time Jozy missed a playoff game because he got into a fight at halftime. Good times. Also, was Jake at the 2017 Eastern Conference Finals or did he just imagine it? Honestly, who are we to say?

In Part One, we cover their dominant and record-setting regular season, and an exclamation mark win that added yet another dramatic chapter to the rivalry with the Montreal Impact.

This week on Sportsfeld Storytime we finish our look back at the 2016 Toronto FC season with the 2016 MLS Cup Final, live from BMO Field. Toronto FC was fresh off their extremely dramatic Eastern Conference Finals victory over the Montreal Impact, and standing in their way of their first MLS Cup was their now rivals, the Seattle Sounders. Two teams that had never won the Cup before enter, only one team would emerge victorious. This week we look back at the drama of the Final, the brilliance of Stefan Frei, and just how utterly, bitterly cold it was at BMO Field that night. Stadiums should have roofs, guys. Being warm is good.

This week on Sportsfeld Storytime we're remembering one of the craziest games in TFC history, a remarkable back-and-forth two legs against the Montreal Impact in the 2016 MLS Cup Finals. In this week's episode we look back at the early 3-0 deficit in Leg 1, and then the absolutely magic decisive second leg in the rain and cold at BMO Field. With Giovinco, and Altidore, and Michael Bradley, it was Benoit Cheyrou scoring the biggest goal in extra time in the 2nd Leg, sending a record 36,000 TFC fans into pandemonium by the lakeshore.

We remember the growth from games being an excuse to party and sing to the Bloody Big Deal to bring Jermain Defoe to the club.

This week, we're digging into the falling action of Brett Lawrie's Blue Jay career, discussing Lawrie's antics on and off the field and what made him such a lightning bolt of attention in Toronto from 2011 to 2014. From great defensive play to falling down a pit in Yankee Stadium to throwing a helmet at an umpire, Brett Lawrie's Blue Jay career was a lot of things, but it certainly wasn't boring.

If you weren't watching the Toronto Blue Jays in 2011, it would be next to impossible to explain what it was like for Brett Lawrie to pop up overnight and become one of the biggest names in the whole city. This month we're revisiting the Brett Lawrie Experience, culminating in his first game-winning home run against the Boston Red Sox. In this episode, we examine the year before the Lawrie trade, where JP Arencibia and Brandon Morrow give us a glimpse of what we thought the future core would be, and the Blue Jays trade one of their strong starting pitchers for a Canadian human can of Red Bull.
