A grammatical question for Torontonians: Is it “the Rogers Centre” or just “Rogers Centre”?

No “the”, which certainly makes it sound pretentious.

And yes, Torontonians.

A grammatical question for Torontonians: Is it “the Rogers Centre” or just “Rogers Centre”? Is “Torontonians” the right word to use to identify the denizens of Toronto?
“insure rob” Actually, “insure burn” is a more popular practice around here.

All right, lay off Pierzynski already. He was only playing along with the “no-hit” theme—Romero hadn’t given up any hits and Pierzynski wasn’t hit.

Pretty disappointed he didn’t throw the no-hitter though as it would have been the first one that I ever saw all the way through. Still, Romero was dealing. Beautiful game.

Actually looks like the pitch might not have hit A.J. at all. Thus, language fixed.

By “plunking,” you mean not hitting at all, right?
AJ is such a heel sometimes. All right, most of the time.
