Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider, right, laughs with starting pitcher Alek Manoah during baseball spring training in Dunedin, Fla., on Thursday, February 16, 2023. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Nathan DenetteIn baseball, it's usually the closer who makes the save. In this case, it was the manager who got the job done.
"Right place, right time," Schneider said Sunday. "I was just enjoying lunch with Jess. You either help or you don't and I decided I'd go over and see if I could help." Others at the woman's table were slow to react, Schneider said, so he asked if he could help. The 43-year-old then thought back to first aid training from his younger days.
"So it was just like, 'I think I remember how to do this.' I'm a bigger guy so I think that helped a little bit."
