Toronto's Season Opener; BJR Day 1; Tor: 5, Tam: 3

The season starts off pretty well for my Toronto Blue Jays. Sorry Maple Leafs. You may have the Marlies, but the Blue Jays are better at what they do than you. Anyway, a 5-3 victory for the Blue Jays, and Tulo does it again. I'm excited to see what he does now that we have him for the whole season. He hits a dinger to make it 2-0 in the 1st inning! In the 3rd Tampa gets one but next half inning, Toronto drives in another run to make it 3-1 at the bottom of the 4th. Toronto gets 2 in the 8th, but Tampa earns 2 in the 9th to end it at a 5-3 game. Marcus Stroman became the youngest player in Blue Jays history to make Opening Day start. (24 years, 338 days.) He played 8 innings throughout the entire game. (6 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 5 K, 3.38 ERA, .88 WHIP) to earn the win. Osuna came in in the 9 to close out the game. Hopefully tonight fares just as well for Toronto as Dickey gets the start against Drew Smyly.
