Hyun-Jin Ryu's return to a major-league mound did not go as he or the Toronto Blue Jays hoped.
Anthony Santander's grand slam blew the game open as the Baltimore Orioles routed Toronto 13-3 on Tuesday to spoil Ryu's return from Tommy John surgery. It had taken the 36-year-old South Korean nearly 14 months to recover from the operation on his throwing arm.
“But I'm going to focus on the fact that I went out there for more than five innings. I'm going to try to do what I can from now on.” Most Tommy John operations take 18 months to recover from but Ryu was back at the major-league level in less than 14. Kyle Bradish struck out seven, allowing three runs on four hits over seven innings. Relievers Cionel Perez and Joey Krehbiel did not allow a run.
Rutschman and Mountcastle had back-to-back doubles to lead off the game. Mountcastle's hit easily scored Rutschman. Henderson then tacked on another run, hitting into a fielder's choice that plated Mountcastle for an early 2-0 Baltimore lead and a concerning start to Ryu's night.But Ryu settled down after that, facing 11 batters in the next three innings. The Blue Jays' solid defence backed him up with a double play ending the third and fifth innings.
