Argonauts to host rival Tiger-Cats at BMO Field on Friday
Derek Slywka is paid to break up passes and prevent touchdowns. Article content He also knows what to do when the football is in his hands. Article content Article content The rookie safety scored two return touchdowns last week in leading the Toronto Argonauts past the Ottawa Redblacks 29-16 for their first win of the season. Article content The six-foot-three, 215-pound Slywka recorded a 105-yard fumble recovery and a 120-yard blocked field goal return, becoming the first CFL player to register 100-yard defensive and kick-return TDs in the same game. Article content Article content Running with the ball, however, isn't foreign to the 24-year-old Waterloo, N.Y., native. Article content He played both ways in high school — including some time at quarterback — and was converted to receiver by the NFL's Indianapolis Colts last summer after signing with the club as an undrafted free agent out of Ithaca College. Article content 'When you're training as a receiver you're working all of the ball drills,' Slywka said. 'You're catching the ball all the time and you really can't drop it, that's kind of your job. Article content 'Growing up I played both ways, I grew up in a small town and I've been doing that my whole life. That helps, so when those off-schedule plays are happening, you don't really feel out of place.' Article content The CFL season has already seen 13 TD returns — six via interception, four fumble returns, two kickoffs and a missed field goal. That included a pick-six by Calgary's Damon Webb on Thursday night versus the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Article content There were 20 in 2024, but only two at this point last season. Article content Article content The record is 45, set in 1995, and the league is on pace for 46 in 2025. The mark for nine teams is 43, established in 2004. Article content Toronto (1-3) hosts archrival Hamilton (1-2) at BMO Field on Friday. The Tiger-Cats are coming off a 35-17 home win over Montreal last week as starter Bo Levi Mitchell recorded his 100th regular-season win in 144 career starts, achieving the milestone faster than any player in CFL history. Article content Hamilton's defence also figured prominently in the win. Canadian rookie linebacker Devin Veresuk had a pick-six in his first start, while defensive lineman Julian Howsare recovered a fumble in the end zone for a touchdown. Article content Slywka's returns came in just his fourth CFL contest. And although he's also registered 14 tackles, a special-teams tackle and interception, his performance versus Ottawa was a coming-out party of sorts as Slywka's missed field-goal return went viral on social media. Article content 'The goal is always the goal,' Slywka said. 'It's to get the win and then also find ways to have opportunities to make plays yourself.

Blue Jays alone in first in AL East after exhilarating four-game sweep of New York Yankees
It's almost certain that there will be a time this season when the Blue Jays go through a lull in form — and as unlikely as it seems given the blissful recency bias — a losing streak. Article content But when it comes, what happened over the past four fantastical days at the Rogers Centre will carry fuel for the remainder of what is shaping up as a riveting summer of baseball in the city. Article content Article content Led by George Springer, the first superstar signed to build a winner in this iteration of the Jays, the good times are rolling and electrifying the downtown dome like it hasn't been in several seasons. Article content Springer banged out a pair of home runs on Thursday night — his team-leading 14th and 15th — to lead the Jays to a thrilling 8-5 victory over the New York Yankees, dusting off the former division leader in a four-game sweep. Article content And just like that, a Toronto team that trailed the Bronx Bombers by eight games at the end of May is all alone in first in the American League East. Article content Dial up your favourite superlative. Article content 'I think it's tough to play as consistently well as we have been, and there could be a natural letdown tomorrow, after a big four game series against the Yankees,' manager John Schneider said prior to what felt like the biggest four-game run of success in his time at the help. 'These guys have demonstrated time after time that they really don't give a (crap.) They've done it inning by inning, day by day, game by game. They're really good at moving on.' Article content Article content And moving on up, thanks to the current five-game winning streak that has been the talk of the baseball world and almost outrageous in its scope and impact. Article content Article content It has been an impressive rise for a Blue Jays team that has put aside a laggardly start and moved on to be one of the most prolific offensively as they've piled up wins. Their 23-10 record since May 28 is the best in the big leagues and it has paid off. Article content Article content In putting up eight runs on Thursday, the Jays improved to 36-3 when scoring five runs or more, the best record in the majors with that proviso. They finished off a four-game sweep of the Yankees for just the third time in franchise history but the first at home. And they did it with big-time performances around the diamond. Article content There was Springer belting out a two-run homer in the third and another two-run shot in the eighth to put up two precious insurance runs to bring the crowd of 36,848 to its feet. Springer's unlikely surge at age 35 has him easily on pace for the most homers in his Jays career, topping the 25 he hit in 2022. Article content There was Bam Bam Addison Barger with another homer and a pair of doubles, power that continues to play for the Jays. Barger now has 11 homers in 63 games, one fewer than Vlad Guerrero Jr., who has played 86.
