Both the Blue Jays and the Buffalo Bisons were open about acknowledging several infrastructural changes to facilitate social distancing for the players and meet MLB standards. This includes upgraded lighting for night games and additional space in the dugout, clubhouse, and bullpen.
After their opening series with the Tampa Rays, the Toronto Blue Jays are 1-2 on the year. Home stands for the Jays in Buffalo in August include the Rays, the Baltimore Orioles, and the Boston Red Sox.
