The Yankees staged a two-out rally in the top of the first when Steve Kemp singled and later scored on a Don Baylor hit. Butch Wynegar walked after that to load the bases for Mike Pagliarulo. Pags lined out to Tony Fernandez to end the inning, but he tagged the ball so hard that Fernandez injured his hand and will be out for the next 30 games! It's a good thing Alfredo Griffin is almost off the DL...
The Blue Jays came roaring back in the bottom of the second. Willie Upshaw and Rance Mulliniks (in for the injured Fernandez) smoked back to back triples as the Blue Jays plated three in the inning. They picked up three more in the third, including a two-run bomb from Jesse Barfield who is playing his first game since coming off the disabled list. After a rocky first inning Dave Stieb lasted eight innings, scattering ten hits and two walks (and a Don Baylor hit by pitch).
