Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker look back on the Blue Jays' 5-2 win in their home opener; particularly José Berríos’ solid outing, along with the crowd’s reaction to John Schneider pregame and when he took Berríos out of the game. The guys invite Sportsnet's Dan Shulman on with his thoughts on the home opener and Berríos' "ace" potential given how well he’s pitched so far this season (26:30). Blue Jays infielder Ernie Clement discusses his start to the season, the renovations at Rogers Centre being beneficial for the players, and the importance of Matt Hague to his development as a hitter (49:54). Do you have to plan differently as a coach when changes are made to the dimensions of a ballpark? Jeff and Kevin call-up former MLB manager and Mariners’ 3B Coach Manny Acta to ask him (01:03:44), before being joined by play-by-play voice Dave Sims who provides a scouting report on tonight’s starter George Kirby (01:18:16).
