Toronto's win marks the first time that the Yankees have been shut out in their home opener since 1965. The game's preconditions hinted at a low-scoring match with factors like the weather and the umpire's pitcher-friendly strike zone.
Stroman's strategic pitching with a variety of pitches led to six strikeouts and only three hits allowed in six innings, while Kikuchi and the Jays' bullpen dominated, holding the Yankees offense in check.
