Tulowitzki starting and #BlueJayAMovie trending
A great day for baseball in Toronto
It's Jays vs. Rays in the final regular season series before Toronto begins postseason play on Oct. 8th.
Today was a good day for baseball in Toronto, as Troy Tulowitzki was back in the starting lineup after recovering from his Sept. 12 shoulder injury from a collision with teammate Kevin Pillar.
How good is this to see?!? <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Tulo?src=hash">#Tulo</a> <a href="http://t.co/p9CHtx8fxg">pic.twitter.com/p9CHtx8fxg</a>

Whereas this user "Blue Jay'd" a book, that was later adapted into a play, that was then adapted into a movie.
