TORONTO -- Blue Jays manager John Gibbons walked off the field at Rogers Centre for the final time having secured a winning record as Toronto's manager.
Prior to Wednesday's game, the Blue Jays announced Gibbons would not be back as the team's manager in 2019. The decision had been a long time coming, but on a day dedicated to Gibbons, the Blue Jays won one for the "Gibber," defeating the Astros, 3-1.
Blue Jays fans showed their appreciation for the long-time manager all afternoon. Toronto mayor John Tory dedicated the day to the 56-year-old skipper, and Blue Jays fans were on their feet applauding Gibbons every time he left the dugout.
