"Yeah, I definitely had a little bit more motivation to go out there and play," Donaldson said. Bautista homered on the fourth pitch from Hughes (1-7), his 14th home run in 21 career games at Target Field. Jose Bautista and Josh Donaldson started the game with back-to-back home runs off Phil Hughes in a three-run first inning, and Marcus Stroman bounced back from his worst major league start to lead the Blue Jays over the Minnesota Twins 3-1. Donaldson, ejected in the first inning Saturday, connected three pitches later for his 11th home run, a 425-foot drive to straightaway centre field. Their performance Sunday demonstrated what the Blue Jays are trying to accomplish.
