Mark Buehrle started for the Blue Jays in Chicago against the White Sox this evening and received a really nice ovation from the fans when he was announced, as well as when he left the game. It was commented on several times what a franchise guy he is/was - perfect game, World Series, 12-year ChiSox career etc.
The Toronto post-game show on FAN590 radio asked what Blue Jays player might have been the equivalent to Buehrle in terms of the reception he got when he returned to pitch against the Jays in Toronto. There aren't many that callers could think of, but the two names the came up most often were Dave Stieb and Roy Halladay.
Anyone think of players for your team who were still cheered when they returned home on another team?
