Tim Mayza Serves as Bat Boy for Blue Jays After Fantasy Football Loss

Blue Jays' pitcher Tim Mayza took on bat boy duties during a spring training game as a unique punishment for finishing last in the team's fantasy football league.

  • Tim Mayza, coming off a career-best season, served as bat boy for the first three innings of a spring training game against the Phillies.
  • The punishment was for finishing last in the Blue Jays' fantasy football league, with Mayza wearing a jersey marked '4-10', his fantasy team's record.
  • Despite a strong season on the mound, Mayza's fantasy football team suffered due to injuries, including a season-ending injury to quarterback Kirk Cousins.
  • Mayza's teammates, including Danny Jansen, the fantasy league's champion, supported the punishment, highlighting the team's camaraderie.
  • Looking ahead, Mayza aims to improve his fantasy football performance next season, while also being a key part of the Blue Jays' bullpen.
