His activation not official until Wednesday, Blue Jays pitcher Sergio Romo watched from a stadium restaurant as his new team earned a walkoff victory over Boston a night earlier at Rogers Centre.

Enjoying a beverage on his own after passing his physical, the 39-year-old reliever - a three-time World Series champion with the San Francisco Giants - was impressed.

Romo, who spent a month on the IL this season due to right shoulder inflammation, was recently released by Seattle after posting an 8.16 earned-run average in 17 games. He was 1-1 with a 4.67 ERA over 66 appearances last year for Oakland and has a 42-35 mark over his 15-year career with a 3.20 ERA. It didn't take long for him to get settled in. An engaging, affable sort, Romo was holding court in the clubhouse with his new teammates before the finale of a three-game series against the Red Sox.It's unclear how much gas he has left in the tank and what kind of leverage situation he'll be used in. But if his championship pedigree can rub off on a young team - even if it's just with a casual chat in the bullpen - then Romo could be an asset.

The veteran right-hander also has history with Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo. Romo played for Tampa Bay over parts of two seasons when Montoyo was on the Rays' coaching staff.
