Colby Rasmus smacks 2 Home Runs, 5 RBI

If the opener is a sign of things to come, this season will be very nice to Blue Jays fans. Toronto (1-0) beats Cleveland (0-1) at home 11-0 in a game that was never close. The team hit 4 Home runs, 2 by Colby Rasmus who drove in 5 Runs in the game. "I felt good out there, saw 2 nice pitches and drove in the runs. Hope this is a sign to come" said Rasmus after the game.

1B Justin Morneau also had a very nice debut going 3/4 with a Home Run, 2 Doubles and 3 RBI in the win. Ben Zobrist hit the 4th Homer (Solo HR) for Toronto in what was his Jays debut as well. Every player got a hit tonight, leading to 16 hits for Toronto.

Ricky Romero was fantastic going 5 Innings, only allowing 2 hits, and striking out 6 batters. This season was a question mark for Toronto. They need him to be the ace and he looked that way tonight. Lets hope he continues to throw like this for the rest of the year.

The Jays go home for their Home Opener vs. the Boston Red Sox. This match-up will see James McDonald (0-0) going up against Clay Buchholtz (0-0)
