Game 56-Yankees at Blue Jays-The Game As I Saw It

Here's a beautiful pano from the Rogers Centre just before Jose Bautista homered for the Jays in the second to put them up 1-0.

The roof is closed tonight and it's muggy in here, and the game is a hot one and the crowd is pretty big tonight for the first game in the Yankees series.

Jays leading 1-0 now in the fourth on Bautista's homer.
