It's a good thing the Rogers Centre has a retractable roof because watching baseball in Toronto in March is guaranteed to be down right freezing, especially once the sun goes down. But that's exactly when the Toronto Blue Jays will kick off their American League title defense in 2026. The club recently announced that their day game home opener, has now become a night game, but that's not the only change.

The Blue Jays have pushed their 2026 season and home opener against the Athletics back one day to Friday, March 27 at 7pm ET.
