Little Guerrero incarnates as a Yankee killer and smashes the bluebird with a stick to hit the haze

When Vladimir Guerrero's rockets blasted into the left field stand at Yankee Stadium, the Blue Jays' soft, debris, and ugly defeats this weekend began to blur; When Alejandro Kirk hit a reversal of the second base hit over Trent Grisham's head in the ninth inning, the scene of Will Smith holding an amnestic in "Men in Black" seemed to recreate - beep. All gloom is emptied in an instant.

Friday's 4-2 win over the Yankees had hundreds of flaws, but that's the magic of the long game. Guerrero Jr.'s home run and Kirk's fatal hit in the ninth inning, just as his season was slow, made up for it. It's an indisputable fact that the Blue Jays' shooting line continues to be sluggish: they are second to last in the major leagues with only 14 hits in 26 games at the start of the season, and they are ranked 26th with 90 points. Although it is not expected to compete with artillery units such as the Cubs and Yankees, it is really disappointing to start like this.

The beauty of baseball lies in the fact that it is constantly changing.

Guerrero Jr.'s second hit of the season continued his legend as a "Yankee killer". The scorching level flight shot streaked across the night sky of New York and crashed into the stands amid the boos of fans. In response, the star hitter responded in the name of legendary Superstar Reggie Jackson: "Fans don't boo a bad player. "

It was Guerrero's 15th home run from his 43rd visit to Yankee Stadium. Aaron Judge is the owner here, but a weekend visit from Guerrero Jr. always leaves his mark on the penthouse.

"It's a gift from God," Guerrero said through the club's interpreter, "and I've always felt at ease here, but it's all from above." "

As a superstar worth 500 million in the team, Guerrero is undoubtedly the key to activating the Blue Jays. In the first few weeks of the season, he was obsessed with hitting a strong level flight to the right field, but he couldn't really unleash his full strength. In the opener's strikeout against Carlos Carrasco's slider, he even needed two bats to reach the ball. Everything seems to be a fraction of a second, but Guerrero's eruption never drags its way—when it comes, it's a landslide.

"It's not a secret," said coach John Schneider, "Guerreiro's rhythm is the rhythm of the whole team, and I hope he has a good time in New York." "

Guerrero is no one-man show. Ideally, he'd need two or three Blue Jays a night, but on Friday Kirk was enough. Long before the nine-inning mark, the catcher had already frozen the Yankees offensive with two precision blocks in six innings — one for Cody Bellinger and one for Jaz Chisholm.

"He's always calm," Schneider praises, "and nothing is going to happen." Two key stops and a nine-game winning strike perfectly illustrate his icy calmness. "

For Kirk, who had an impressive training performance this spring but had a low start to the season (0.211 batting average, 0.532 attack index), the release was significant. "It feels fantastic," he said through an interpreter, "and I and the team need this turning point." "

Before turning the tide of the game on Kirk's nine-innings, the Blue Jays almost wasted Jose Berrios' quality starter who had lost two points in seven innings. A pivotal blow reconstructs the narrative in an instant — the moment the white meteor swept past the Yankees Stadium's outfield wall, all the antecedents dissipated in the New York evening breeze.
