The Toronto Blue Jays are a Canadian professional baseball team based in Toronto. The Blue Jays compete in Major League Baseball as a member club of the American League East division. The team usually plays its home games at Rogers Centre, but are currently using Sahlen Field in Buffalo, New York for the 2021 season due to border restrictions brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. The team had used TD Ballpark in Dunedin, Florida for April and May of the 2021 season, and Sahlen Field during the 2020 season. The name "Blue Jays" originates from the bird of the same name, and blue is also the traditional colour of Toronto's collegiate and professional sports teams including the Maple Leafs and the Argonauts. In 1976, out of the over 4,000 suggestions, 154 people selected the name "Blue Jays." In addition, the team was originally owned by the Labatt Brewing Company, makers of the popular beer Labatt Blue.
