By now you&#8217;ve surely seen the two plays that simultaneously set the Toronto sports scene alight on Tuesday night: Kyle Lowry&#8217;s game-tying half-court heave at the buzzer of Game One of the Raptors&#8217; playoff series with the Miami Heat, and Justin Smoak&#8217;s game-winning extra inning home run to finally put a second and third run on the board for the surprisingly frustrating Blue Jays&#8217; offence.
But have you seen the clips inter-cut and running in real time to show how the two incredible moments really did happen at almost the exact same time (and only about a half-kilometre apart)? Because that&#8217;s especially cool &#8212; particularly when it&#8217;s time-stamped!

OK, so there may have been a jump of about ten seconds in there. But they were pretty close!

Check it out.
*Originally this piece said that it was Smoak&#8217;s game-tying home run, not the winning one, because I am an idiot.
