Further fueling suspicions, Encarnación posted an Instagram story Friday afternoon of what appears to be the player walking near Bay Street in downtown Toronto.
Some fans believe the parrot is a reference to Encarnación, who played for the Jays from 2009 to 2016, and his famous home run celebration, in which he would hold his right arm out while running the bases. It first made an appearance while Encarnación played for the Blue Jays, with fans quickly giving the celebration nicknames such as the “Edwing” or “walking the parrot” on social media.
It soon became ubiquitous with the player. He continued to perform it while playing for the Cleveland Guardians, Seattle Mariners, New York Yankees and Chicago White Sox following his run in Toronto.
