Kazuma Okamoto wasn’t letting go of the bat until he saw the ball in the bleachers ☄️

@JohnnyGiunta_ April 11th I drove 8 hours to Toronto to see Springer break his toe… today I fly to Minneapolis to see it happen again. Am I cursed?? #BlueJaysDad5050SeasonWithFamilyFriendsAndFansAtTargetField @BlueJaysDad

I used to only watch the Blue Jays to see Kazuma Okamoto, but lately, I’ve noticed I get a bit grumpy whenever the team loses. I think I’m officially becoming a fan!

Since I’ve been so focused on Okamoto, I have a few mysteries I need help solving:

• Mystery No.1: I saw a guy with a mustache at 2B one day, then someone who looked just like him made a diving catch in LF the next day. Are they the same person?

• Mystery No.2: Someone fractured their toe but was back running in less than a month. Is he a superhuman?

• Mystery No.3: I haven't seen the manager in a uniform yet. Is that guy actually the manager, or am I being pranked?

• Mystery No.4: A "cuddly" player who was incredibly fast suddenly vanished. Where did he go?

I’ve already found the reporter who gets drenched in ice water by Vlad Jr., but I need more info! Which accounts should I follow to keep up with the team?

Did you guys know that there's a big difference between the release points of Tyler Rogers and Trey Yesavage?

Did you guys know that?

Somebody should do a tweet about it.

Their release points are so different.

Who has both more strikeouts and a lower ERA than Kevin Gausman since 2020? Nobody.

It’s a wrap here in Dunedin (for now). It’s been a pleasure covering Kaz Okamoto — a very good player and a genuinely nice person. I was especially impressed by how he doesn’t take himself too seriously, particularly considering he was the face of the Yomiuri Giants, the closest thing Japan has to the Yankees.
Wishing him the best of luck at the WBC.
Also, many thanks to the Blue Jays staff and the media members here for being so friendly and professional. See you all again soon.
