In 2023, I had the opportunity to speak with John "Gibby" Gibbons. As the Blue Jays play for the 2025 World Series against the LA Dodgers, I thought I would share this episode with all of you.

We talked about:

  • Two WS rings with Braves and 1986 Mets
  • Getting umps to throw John out
  • World Baseball Classic (Ohtani and Trout)
  • One of John’s good friends, JP Ricciardi – disliked in Toronto among the fan base. Why does JP get a bad rap? 
  • Pete Walker, pitching coach with the Jays, played for John
  • Blue Jays new manager Schneider
  • Alex Anthopoulos
  • Why John didn’t like the Home run jacket. 


I hope you enjoy!

Go Jays Go!
