A Toronto children’s hospital was flooded this week with a surprise surge of thousands of dollars in donations. The unlikely source? Dodgers fans.
The Dodgers defeated the Toronto Blue Jays in a monumental World Series win last week, giving the Boys in Blue back-to-back titles. After such an upset, a rivalry between the cities seems natural. But Dodgers fans are making a widespread effort to prove just the opposite.
It all started online when Blue Jays fan Marcus Kim suggested on Reddit that the winning team donate to the losing team’s local children’s hospital, a Blue Jays fan tradition.
