Jays auction Marcus Stroman’s Humboldt-honouring cap

First Published:

Blue Jays right-hander Marcus Stroman is helping raise money for those affected by the Humboldt Broncos bus crash.

Fifteen people were killed and another 14 injured when a bus carrying the junior hockey team collided with a semi-truck on Friday Apr. 6.

On Saturday, Stroman took the mound against the Texas Rangers in Arlington with “Humboldt Broncos” written in white on the bottom left side of his cap.

“SK” was written on the other side.

Stroman pitched 4.2 innings and had 3 strikeouts that game.

His cap is being auctioned off, with proceeds going to the Broncos.

It will be available for auction until 8 p.m. Sunday.

Meanwhile, donations keep pouring in to the GoFundMe campaign to raise money for the players and families affected.

The online campaign has raised more than $5.4 million so far.
