Edwin Encarnacion blossomed into a superstar during his eight years with the Toronto Blue Jays.
From 2009-2016, the three-time All-Star hit 239 home runs and drove in 679 runs while batting .265, and sits third on the Blue Jays’ all-time home runs leaders list.
On Monday, the 34-year-old slugger returned to Toronto for the first time as a member of the Cleveland Indians and didn’t know what to expect.
However, it ended up going better than he expected, as he got quite the media turnout and enjoyed a nice interaction with former teammate Jose Bautista.
Not knowing how the fans were going to greet him in his first game back, Encarnacion got a lengthy standing ovation from the Blue Jays faithful.
As expected, the Blue Jays fans welcomed Encarnacion back with open arms and a very nice standing ovation.
