Blue Jays announce important message to fans
The official Toronto Blue Jays account made sure to announce to all fans on social media that the game tonight will be an Apple TV broadcast production due to the game being a Friday Night Baseball program.
REMINDER: Sportsnet will air the Apple TV+ production of tonight's game against the Royals. #FridayNightBaseball
The Blue Jays usually have Buck Martinez and Dan Shulman calling their games on Sportnet but due to the unusual circumstances, this will not the the case tonight.
Sportsnet has gone through some difficult things to get this game in front of Blue Jays fans eyes tonight since it might be their playoff clinching game but due to yesterday's loss, it looks like a simple win won't get them in.
The Blue Jays need to win tonight in Kansas City and also need two teams out of the Boston Red Sox, Detroit Tigers or Cleveland Guardians to lose for them to clinch tonight.
New: The official update from MLB today shows that the #BlueJays can, in fact, clinch tonight if these things happen:
It will be interesting to see how all of this plays out and if the Blue Jays end up making the playoffs tonight since some much needs to go in their favor.
