Fans discuss Canadian references in "The Wink," noting an insulting mention involving a Blue Jays baseball error, with humorous agreement about Canada being an easy target for jokes.
Another insulting Canadian reference in Seinfeld.
I was transcribing The Wink this morning and realized another insulting reference to Canada was made when Paul O'Neil hits the triple over Bell's head and comes home on a Blue Jay (Martinez) error.
Okay, maybe a DR insult, but we'll take it.

Interesting . . . Derek Bell (91-93) played in the BJ outfield, *Dominique* Martinez (92-93) was a BJ infielder as was Roberto Alomar (90-95) BUT Sandy Alomar did catch for the Jays too (95-97)- so I don't think you can say I was WAY off. But by the exact date the show aired you are probably correct it was another trio - of Belle, Martinez and Alomar. - Anyway, it was a lousy team so I am glad it was NOT the Jays. :-) :-) :-)
I will correct my error.
Thanks for the info,
Mike

Yes, I know (typing error) - I meant Sandy Martinez but miss wrote the name since I was writing Roberto's name too and you had mentioned Sandy - I did correct that.
But you are right it must have been the Indians, not the Jays.
