TORONTO - The wait to pitch in front of his new fanbase was worth it for Blue Jays lefty Hyun Jin Ryu. The Covid-19 pandemic meant Ryu (11-5) made his previous home starts for the Blue Jays (55-49) in either Dunedin, Fla. or Buffalo. There was plenty of South Korean support among the 14,270 at Rogers Centre, including one fanatic who waved a South Korean flag near the Blue Jays dugout. The Blue Jays pitcher managed to get his glove on the hard-hit ball. He made his Blue Jays debut in the designated hitter’s spot but went 0 for 4.
