In the Blue Jays' 5-3 victory over the Guardians, Bo Bichette notably hit his first homer of the season and also walked six times and reached base on a third strike dropped. The team scored three runs with key contributions from players like Anthony Santander and Ernie Clement. While Gavin Williams struggled on the mound for the Guardians, Kevin Gausman excelled for the Blue Jays, striking out nine batters in six innings. Yimi Garcia encountered challenges late in the game, underlining the volatility present in pitching performances.
It was great to see Bo Bichette get his first homer of the season, leading off the game. Maybe he can make a regular thing of it?
Gavin Williams gave up seven hits and five walks in just four innings. That should have added up to more than his two earned.
Kevin Gausman went six innings, allowing one hit and one walk with nine strikeouts. He was as good as we've seen him in any start as a Blue Jays.
Yimi Garcia, who hadn't given up a run this season, gave up a hit, a pair of walks, and a two-out grand slam by Daniel Schneemann.
