Gurriel, Hernandez drive in late runs as Jays beat Rays in Buchholz’s debut Globe_Sports
Tampa Bay Rays' Austin Meadows tumbles face down into third base after being tagged out in a run-down with Toronto Blue Jays catcher Luke Maile in the sixth inning of their American League MLB baseball game in Toronto on Saturday, April 13, 2019. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Fred ThornhillClay Buchholz prepared for his first start in a Blue Jays uniform by rewatching film of himself pitching at Rogers Centre.
Buchholz allowed six hits and one run — an RBI single from Austin Meadows in the sixth — and struck out two in the no-decision in his first start major-league start since last September. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. drove in a pair of late runs as Toronto bounced back from a 1-0 deficit to spoil a stellar outing from reigning American League Cy Young winner Blake Snell, who pitched six innings of one-hit ball with nine strikeouts and a walk.
“He’s got a history of hitting and he’s only had what, 50 at-bats, 40 at-bats? So it’s coming,” Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo said. “That was a big there, good for him.” The Blue Jays have gone hitless through the first five innings in five of their 15 games this season. That ominous trend began Day 1 with Toronto’s home opener, when Detroit’s Jordan Zimmermann took a perfect game into the seventh before it was broken up.
