The opening day box:

Quite the quiet start for the bats, only managing 4 hits and as cold as the weather outside Rogers Centre. Danny Morales was less than impressive in his first start after signing his big money extension.

The Rays did bounce back in the second game to get a split after jostling the Jays 6-2. Ruben Cerrillo (1-0) was typically excellent at 7 7 1 1 1 7 for the win and they got homers from Justin Blackwell and Melvin Olvera, the latter coming off the bench to hit his, the first of what we hope are many for the club. Billy Doughty's 2-run single was the big hit, putting Tampa Bay ahead to stay.

Team record: 1-1. The schedule to start the season is unusually quirky, with the Rays and Jays among only a handful of teams to open on the 31st, and to let the others catch up they'll have two days off before resuming play for a pair in Boston.
