Fox News Flash top headlines are here. Check out what's clicking on Foxnews.com. Newest Toronto Blue Jay Whit Merrifield got a COVID-19 vaccine and can now play in his team's home games.

Canada does not allow unvaccinated people into the country, which has prevented dozens of MLB players from playing against the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre in Toronto, including Merrifield in July.

The country's vaccination mandates may or may not have played a role in who the Blue Jays looked to acquire at the trade deadline.

But it seemed Merrifield understood the possibility and wanted to be playing in his team's most important games as the postseason approaches.
