Bichette's 5-hit night helps Blue Jays end Rays' season-opening 13-game win streak

George Springer hit a leadoff homer and Bo Bichette had five hits as the Toronto Blue Jays beat Tampa Bay 6-3 on Friday night to end the Rays' season-opening 13-game winning streak.

Jose Berrios threw five strong innings in his best start of the year as Toronto (9-5) won for the eighth time in 10 games.

The Blue Jays took advantage of a pair of bases-loaded walks and a two-run error in the fifth inning. Josh Lowe and Christian Bethancourt cut into the lead with back-to-back homers off Yimi Garcia in the seventh.

Tampa Bay (13-1) was looking to set a modern-day Major League Baseball record for most consecutive victories to start a season.

The 1982 Atlanta Braves and 1987 Milwaukee Brewers also went 13-0. The 1884 St. Louis Maroons went 20-0 in the Union Association.

Tampa Bay starter Drew Rasmussen (2-1) entered play with a clean earned-run average this season. Springer changed that by taking his second pitch of the game over the wall for his third homer of the year.

It was the 53rd leadoff homer of Springer's career, moving him into a tie for third place on the all-time MLB list with Craig Biggio.
