Brett Lawrie Takes Devastated Young Blue Jays Fan Out For Pizza
By Hayden Kane
Brett Lawrie surprised the 6-year-old Toronto Blue Jays fan who was devastated about his departure and took her out for pizza.
This is one of those rare, pleasant stories that provide a much-needed break from the otherwise-far-too-serious stories that dominant the current news cycle in professional sports.

A young Blue Jays fan was devastated that Brett Lawrie was traded. She doesn’t care about projections or what the move did to bolster Toronto’s lineup. She isn’t interested in the dynamics of the American League East or the fact that the Toronto front office might be taking advantage of Billy Beane‘s bizarre moves this MLB off-season.
Nope. She just cares that her favorite player got traded, and she hated it.
As a reminder, here is the now-viral video of Ameilia reacting to the news that Lawrie had been traded to Oakland Athletics as part of the deal that sent Josh Donaldson to Toronto.
It would appear that Lawrie caught wind of the video, and so he did a little something to make that young fan’s day.
Check out the photos of Lawrie and young Ameilia.
And here is the video of Lawrie surprising Ameilia.
Good on Lawrie for taking some time to make this young fan’s day.
