Ron Guidry and Ron Davis combined on a six-hitter and Willie Randolph, Dennis Werth and Joe Lefebvre smashed homers as the Yankees defeated the Blue Jays, 7-3. Randolph led off with his round-tripper in the first inning when the Yankees scored three runs. Werth's blow with a man on base in the third was his first in the major leagues. Lefebvre's homer in the sixth was his second in two nights. [The Sporting News]
