Heroes and zeros from the Yankees’ 10-1 loss to the Blue Jays in Game 1 of the ALDS at Rogers Centre on Saturday:

Hero

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is winless in the postseason no longer.

The Blue Jays’ power hitter, who has a well-known dislike for the Yankees, started an impressive day with a home run, followed by a single, a sacrifice fly, and a diving catch that initiated a double play.

Zero

The Yankees lost primarily because they did not score enough.

Giancarlo Stanton, who is hitting .067 in the postseason, struck out to leave the bases loaded in the sixth.
