Summary
Jonathan St. Clair is crossing MLB in a 30-day, 30-stadium trip to push water-safety awareness, 12 years after his 21-month-old son Jasper drowned in an ungated pool.
Toronto, Detroit and Cleveland marked the latest legs of a route built around 17 flights, six drives, four trains, one boat and one bike, with St. Clair trying to avoid rainouts and travel disruptions.
A life jacket and a cap showing all 30 team logos have become his conversation starters at ballparks, helping him connect fans with local drowning-prevention groups in every city.
Recent U.S. drowning deaths helped spur the campaign, and St. Clair said its real measure will be the reach and awareness it creates after the 30 days end.
