Jose Bautista broke out of an early-season slump by going 3 for 3 and scoring four runs as the Toronto Blue Jays ruined the Baltimore Orioles' home opener with a 12-5 victory Friday. Josh Donaldson and Dioner Navarro each drove in three runs for the Blue Jays, who took control with a four-run first inning and led 10-1 in the fourth. Mark Buehrle (1-0) earned his 200th career win, allowing one run and eight hits in six innings. Bautista went 0 for 12 with eight strikeouts during Toronto's opening three-game series in New York.
