The 2020 season is off to a good start for the Toronto Blue Jays. The hometown Blue Jays dumped the Boston Red Sox, 8-1, at Rogers Centre. Randal Grichuk spearheaded the win. He went 4 for 4 with a home run and 3 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. The winner was Hyun-jin Ryu, who threw 91 pitches over 6.1 innings. The left-hander was charged with 1 run on 4 hits.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. chipped in for Toronto with a 2-run home run in the bottom of the fifth. For the game, the third baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 runs batted in.

"We're in a marathon, not a sprint," said Grichuk. "But I like how we're playing right now."
