A poised and confident Alek Manoah dominated the Yankees with six innings of two-hit ball to win his major league debut, and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the New York 2-0 on Thursday in a doubleheader opener. Manoah became the second Blue Jays starting pitcher to throw six scoreless innings in his debut after Mauro Gozzo in 2019. Semien and Bichette gave the Blue Jays a 2-0 lead by hitting 374-foot homers in a four-pitch span. Jordan Montgomery (2-1) started the second game for the Yankees, the series finale, and Robbie Ray (2-1) for the Blue Jays. Yankees: RHP Corey Kluber (sprained right shoulder) was placed on the injured list and was awaiting a second opinion.
