Colby Rasmus does the "OK Blue Jays" dance, full moon to blame?

Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports

The harvest moon was bright and round over the Rogers Centre Monday night as the Blue Jays hosted he Chicago Cubs. Marcus Stroman was dealing and the fast-paced game reached the middle of the seventh inning by eight o'clock. A proud Blue Jays seventh-inning stretch tradition is the singing of "OK Blue Jays"--rather than appealing to a deity to act favourably on a country that uses the name of a continent to refer to themselves--before "Take Me Out to the Ballgame."

During the song, J Force--the Blue Jays' dance team--leads the fans in a simple dance that involves some clapping and some fist pumping. On Monday, Colby Rasmus, who has been with Toronto since mid-2011, showed that he knew those moves too:

Seeing Rasmus participating in this piece of Blue Jays culture while sitting on the bench during what may be his last days as a Blue Jay just breaks my heart.
