Blue Jays' success good for Canadian ball

DUNEDIN, Fla. -- The Blue Jays' deep run into the 2015 postseason meant not only great things for the franchise, but also great things for the Canadian national program.

Baseball Canada expects to see an uptick in participation over the next couple of years as children from coast to coast have been re-energized by Toronto's success. Television ratings reached record highs, and attendance was the best it had been in two decades, which can only mean good things for the growth of the sport.

Canada already has seen what a successful Blue Jays team can mean to the health of baseball.
