  "account": "The Blue Jays' manager, John Schneider, now displays a painting of actor Tom Selleck on his office wall. The artwork, created by the team's star pitcher Dylan Cease, is a tribute to Selleck's iconic mustache and charismatic performances in movies such as \"Mr. Baseball\" and \"Quigley Down Under.\" Cease, who began painting in 2022, spent around three hours creating the piece, which features bright flowers surrounding the multicolored letters spelling out \"Tom Selleck.\" The manager, who had the original painting displayed in the Art Gallery of Ontario, was surprised to see the new artwork replacing it in his office.",
  "summary": "The \"Eve of Toronto\" has a followup. And it's providing plenty of colour on the wall in Blue Jays manager John Schneider's office.",
