Rogers is, once again, giving away 500 free tickets for every Blue Jays home game at the Rogers Centre during the American League Championship Series.

At Union Station today, a Rogers dugout phone will be available from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. where you can leave a message for Blue Jays Manager John Schneider to cheer on the Blue Jays.

Anyone who leaves a message on the phone will have a chance to win one of 200 pairs of tickets for each ALCS game.

You can also leave a message by calling or texting Schneider at 416-987-JAYS for English speakers or Russell Martin, former Blue Jays catcher, 514-807-JAYS for French or by posting a message of support on social using #DialTheDugout.

There will be 50 pairs of tickets up for grabs for each game for those who call or text or post on social media.

All tickets will be non-transferable.
