2 w. ago Toronto Blue Jays just made franchise history in a very depressing way

Through the first two weeks of the season, the Toronto Blue Jays have already gone on a bit of a mini roller coaster.With a record of 8-6 that has them tied for first in the AL East, they've gone through a four-game winning streak and a three-game winning streak, coupled with a three-game losing streak in the middle.Through four different series against Boston, Baltimore, the New York Mets, and Washington, they've been swept, swept their opponents, split a series evenly, and had a second sweep attempt fall short in the final game.Toronto's first 14 games have included a little bit of everything, but there's been one glaring issue on which the Blue Jays still have quite a bit of work to do.In the first two weeks of the year, Toronto has hit only six home runs, an all-time franchise low, per Sportsnet stats.Blue Jays 6 Home Runs are their fewest in franchise history through 14 games— Sportsnet Stats (@SNstats) April 11, 2025New trade acquisition Andres Gimenez hit three home run...

2 w. ago Festival featuring hundreds of exotic cars taking over a Toronto street this spring

One of Toronto's most cherished car events is gearing up to make its great return this spring, marking the 15th annual iteration of the event.I've said it before, and I'll say it again: street festivals are one of the — if not the — best part(s) of spring and summer in Toronto. The knowledge that weekends filled with time spent aimlessly ogling vendor booths and crushing street barbecue just sends a shiver down my spine. We've still got some time yet before the peak of street festival season hits, though, which means that, for now, the announcements of festivals to come are enough to keep me going, and the latest across the airwaves is the return of the Yorkville Exotic Car Show this June.Screeching into one of the city's swankiest neighbourhoods on Father's Day, the show is marking its 15th year in style, with a dazzling array of spectacular vehicles taking over Bloor Street for one (hopefully) sunny day only.You can expect to see a staggering red-carpet ...
