It’s official: Blue Jays to call PNC Park home

After being kicked out of Canada, the Blue Jays are roosting at PNC Park this year.

The Blue Jays and Pirates were connected this week after the Blue Jays and Major League Baseball were not granted exemption from Canada's Quarantine Act, meaning they cannot hold the season in Toronto.

SportsNet reporter Hazel Mae was the first with the news of it being official.

While the Blue Jays were considering multiple potential spots this year, including Buffalo, NY, home of their AAA team, and Dunedin, Fla., where their spring training facilities are located, they preferred playing at a major-league park.
