Sundays are better with baseball broadcasts, and thankfully, today we have another.
It’ll be the first Jays simultaneous radio/TV broadcast, so we shall see how it goes.
Here are today’s lineups. The Jays are up against Gerrit Cole, who they’ll face on Opening Day.

Different-looking lineup for #Bluejays as they host NYY today. Biggio hits second, playing LF, Semien 6th. No Gurriel or Tellez, but everyone else is in.

Gerrit Cole pitching - they’ll face him on opening day. Tanner Roark starts for #Jays, so he’s unlikely to start that series.

Gave up a pair of hits and struck out two.
