Blue Jays: Cal Quantrill to start Saturday against his Dad’s old team

When current Padres right-hander Cal Quantrill went to the SkyDome to watch his dad, Paul Quantrill, pitch for six straight seasons between 1996-2001, he must have envisioned himself on that mound himself one day in a major league game.

It was just a dream back then but on Saturday when the Blue Jays and Padres play game two, Cal will toe the same rubber his father did some 18 years ago.

Padres manager Andy Green announced yesterday.

This so cool on a number of levels. Cal Quantrill, son of Paul, with start for the Padres against the #BlueJays.
