The AL East doesn’t get any easier, does it? With the Orioles trying to make a jump from a great young club to a true postseason contender and the Blue Jays trying to keep their window open, every game will matter in 2025,

Come Thursday, the rest of the league will get in on the fun by celebrating Opening Day 2025. The Opening Day slate includes a clash of American League East rivals, as the Baltimore Orioles head north of the border to visit the Toronto Blue Jays.

Adley Rutschman hit a 436-foot home run in his first at-bat and went back-to-back with Jordan Westburg in the eighth inning, Tyler O’Neill homered for his MLB-record sixth consecutive opening day and Cedric Mullins launched a pair of long balls himself to lead an offensive explosion in a 12-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday afternoon.
