Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and centre fielder Kevin Kiermaier will slot back into the team's lineup on Friday as they take on the Baltimore Orioles.

Kiermaier was out dealing with an illness while Guerrero, who will bat third at DH, was out of the starting lineup for the past two contests as a result of right knee discomfort.

Guerrero is hitting .312/.383/.516 with seven homers and 27 RBI this season while Kiermaier is .327/.387/.522 with three homers and 13 RBI.

Friday's game will be available to watch exclusively on AppleTV+. Fans can listen free across the Sportsnet Radio Network and on sportsnet.ca.
