KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Bo Bichette rapped a clean single in the first at-bat of his big league career, and then was greeted by his parents after the Toronto Blue Jays rolled to a 7-3 win over the Kansas City Royals on Monday night.
What did they say?
“I don’t even remember what my mom said,” the mop-haired 21-year-old shortstop said, chuckling with a rookie naivete. “My dad said, ‘Congratulations Bo. You’re a big leaguer.”’ That would be longtime major leaguer Dante Bichette, by the way.
The Blue Jays’ top prospect didn’t have the biggest impact on the game, though. That was another son of an ex-big leaguer, Cavan Biggio, who hit a go-ahead homer in the eighth inning and added an RBI single in the ninth. The son of Hall of Famer Craig Biggio finished with three hits.
