Roy Halladay ‘never smiled’ on TV, cancer survivor recalls, but hanging out was a wish come true


Sean Clayton was just hoping to play catch with Roy Halladay when he first met the former Blue Jays pitcher in 2008 through the Make-A-Wish organization. “Without a doubt, I knew right away I wanted to play catch with Roy Halladay,” he said. “I wanted to play catch with the best pitcher in baseball.”Former Blue Jays star pitcher Roy Halladay died Tuesday, leaving many of his peers in the sports world in shock. Halladay was drafted by the Blue Jays in 1995 and made his big-league debut with the team in 1998. When the pitcher heard Clayton would be in Toronto on a family trip to watch a game, Halladay met them at field level to catch up.
