Michelle Riccio took a deep breath, stepped onto the field with a big smile on her face and looked out at a sold-out Rogers Centre crowd giving her a standing ovation. Riccio was presented with flowers and given a pink Blue Jays jersey as the team's Honorary Bat Girl prior to Toronto's 4-2 loss to the Dodgers on Sunday.
