| 8/31/25 | Blue Jays back to winning ahead of key trip with stops in Cincinnati and the Bronx. A defensive miscue, a couple of choppy hits and it looked like the Toronto Blue Jays were going to let another game slip between their fingers. Nance's gutsy performance in the top of the fifth gave the Blue Jays' dugout a boost, with Tyler Heineman doubling in a runner in the bottom of the inning, immediately followed by Myles Straw's two-run single as Toronto fended off the Milwaukee Brewers 8-4 on Sunday to avoid a three-game sweep. "We definitely needed to win, for sure," said Nance, who struck out Andrew Vaughn on four pitches and then induced an Isaac Collins groundout to escape the fifth inning.

The 34-year-old, who is having a phenomenal season in a backup role behind Alejandro Kirk, recently joined the 6ix Inning Stretch podcast hosted by former Blue Jay Whit Merrield and broadcaster Lindsay Dunn. The entire show was an intriguing listen, though one particularly interesting moment came near the end, when it was revealed that on top of being a big-league catcher, Heineman is also a very good magician. “Since I have two kids now, I haven't practiced as much because I feel like I have to give them attention when I'm not at the baseball field,” Heineman explained.

The 26-year-old finished the inning and caught the bottom of the third, but was pinch-hit for by Tyler Heineman in the top of the fourth. Ali Sanchez, who went 2-for-11 while he was filling in for Heineman, and who also spent seven days on the concussion IL in May, was called up from Triple-A Buffalo to replace Kirk on the roster.
