On May 15, 2016, the Blue Jays squared off against the Texas Rangers in the rubber match of a three game series in Arlington, and Rangers’ second baseman Roughned Odor took the term “squared off” a little too literally.
We all remember what happened, as Odor landed a haymaker to the jaw of Jose Bautista, instantly blowing up the internet with memes that still make their rounds to this day.
Fortunately for the Bautista and the Blue Jays, they got the last laugh in 2016, as they eliminated the Rangers in the ALDS for the second consecutive year, and karmically, Odor made a crucial error in the deciding game to help bury his team.
