WATCH | Fans from across the country are screaming 'Go Jays Go' into the playoffs: They may be called the Toronto Blue Jays, but their fans span far beyond the city. CBC's Greg Ross tracked down people from across Canada who are in town to see the team play."
"You heard lots of this in June and July, as the team racked up improbable wins and surged past the Yankees to take the division lead. Turns out, it kept working. Sure, there were heroics from the big names: the aforementioned Springer, who leads the team in home runs, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Bo Bichette (still out of the lineup while recovering from a knee injury suffered while playing the Yankees in early September) and Alejandro Kirk."

Fans from across Canada have converged to support the Jays during a season that produced 94 wins. The roster combines star power—George Springer, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Alejandro Kirk—and lesser-known contributors who fuel late comebacks.

Questions remain about sustainability and injuries, notably Bo Bichette's knee recovery, but recent results show the approach has continued to work.
