Hiroki Kuroda started out shaky through the first two. He gave up a two run homer in the first to Edwin Encarnacion, and solo homer to Brett Lawrie in the second. He calmed down considerably after that, and the Blue Jays didn't score again for the rest of the game.
Vernon Wells got the party started for the Yankees in the second with a solo homer. Robinson Cano came up big in the third with a three run homer to put the Yankees in the lead. Not to be out done, Francisco Cervelli hit his own solo homer to secure the lead.
Very strange moment on the field when Ben Francisco was called out by the first base umpire, only to return to the field when the crew chief ruled that Encarnacion bobbled the ball. It got Blue Jays manager John Gibbons, ejected from the game.
The final score:Yankees 5 - Blue Jays 3
