The Toronto Blue Jays return to the city on Friday, May 31 for a seven-game homestand that begins with the highly anticipated debut of the first-ever Blue Jays City Connect uniform, which will be worn by players during Friday’s game (7:07 p.m. vs. the Pittsburgh Pirates). The action is part of City Connect Week, which features two special City Connect giveaways for the first 15,000 fans on June 3 and 5.

The new uniform will be unveiled on Blue Jays social media channels in the evening of Thursday, May 30, followed by media availabilities and a release party in downtown Toronto. Media interested in attending should reach out to [email protected].

With the homestand running through June 6, there’s lots for fans to enjoy at the ballpark starting Friday:
