Angels open 3-game series against the Blue Jays

On Monday, the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Los Angeles Angels 5-2 in their season series opener, with Dylan Cease striking out 12 batters over five innings.
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. sparked Toronto's offense, crushing a 430-foot home run in the third inning before driving in the go-ahead run in the sixth to break a 2-2 tie.
Cease earned the win despite needing 110 pitches to record 15 outs, while Nathan Lukes provided late insurance with two RBIs. Closer Jeff Hoffman fanned three in the ninth for his third save.
Los Angeles struck out a season-high 18 times and suffered their third consecutive defeat. Starting pitcher Reid Detmers took the loss, allowing four runs and five hits over six innings.
For Tuesday night's game in Anaheim, Blue Jays LHP Patrick Corbin will oppose Angels RHP Jack Kochanowicz as the series continues.
