Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Just like Christmas: Exhibition Stadium worker Shig Nishikawa was busy spreading salt in the stands yesterday; getting the place ready for Jays' scheduled home opener Friday against Milwaukee Brewers. The start of the season was literally put on ice in several cities as wintry weather tossed a wicked curve into opening-day ceremonies yesterday and today.
