Blue Jays Tickets - Rogers Centre
The 2008 season is about to begin and Blue Jays tickets are selling like never before. And why not? The Blue Jays did well in the 2007 season. They finished in the third place in the American League East. Their record for the 2007 season was 83-79. Since 2004, when the Montreal Expos moved to Washington, D.C and became the Washington Nationals, the Toronto Blue Jays have been the only MLB team outside the USA. They have a strong and loyal fan following in Canada and the Blue Jays tickets are always sold out from the word go. Originally, they used to play their home games at the Exhibition Stadium. In 1989, they moved to SkyDome. In 2007, SkyDome was bought by Rogers Communications. It was renamed Rogers Centre and the Blue Jays still play their home games here. Rogers Centre is located next to the CN Tower, near the shores of Lake Ontario. It was the first stadium to have a fully retractable motorized roof. It has a sitting capacity of around 50,500 for a baseball match. The Toronto Blue Jays are the only Major League Baseball team from outside the United States of America which has won the World Series. It was 1977 when MLB debuted in Toronto. In the very first month of the 1978 season, the Blue Jays turned a triple play. The following season fans saw Alfredo Griffin, who was awarded the Rookie of the Year shortstop, hitting .287 with 179 hits plus 21 stolen bases. In 1981, Dave Stieb got the first winning record for a Toronto Blue Jays pitcher. With such good performances, no wonder the Blue Jays tickets soon became sizzling hot. The Toronto Blue Jays won their World Series titles in 1992 and 1993. They play in the American League East. The New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox also play in the East Division. The fact that the Toronto Blue Jays compete against such strong teams and come out winning most of the times show the great potential of the team. It was in the 1982 season that the team had their first solid season. It was all achieved under the leadership of new manager Bobby Cox. In 1985, they won their first American League East Division title. In the 1991 season, they added Devon White, Joe Carter, and Roberto Alomar. They won the division title in that season. The Toronto Blue Jays also became the first team in history to sell over four million tickets in a single season. The popularity of Blue Jays tickets rose higher when in 1992, the team won their first World Series title. With players like Joe Carter, John Olerud, Paul Molitor, and Roberto Alomar, the team won their second World Series title in the very next season. The team is looking forward to the 2008 season. With players like A.J. Burnett, Matt Stairs, David Purcey, Cody Haerther, and Marco Scutaro, the team hopes to win another World Series title.
