The Jays of 1993 gave Toronto a needed dose of ambition. Joe Carter believes it can happen again

October 25, 2025

Joe Carter was 33 years old when he stepped up to home plate on an October night during Game 6 of the 1993 World Series. The city of Toronto was 159. Both had been waiting for this moment for a very long time.

Mr. Carter grew up in Oklahoma City, Okla. His father owned a downtown gas station where young Joe would pump gas as a kid. He had 10 brothers and sisters. The family was crazy about sports. To feed them all, his dad hunted quails, pheasants and rabbits.
