The Toronto Blue Jays are a beast to play, especially at home with the top offense in baseball. They are No. 1 in runs, on-base percentage, and slugging! Toronto is off a fluky late loss yesterday, making them 73-1 when leading after eight innings. They are in bounce back mode and hungry, a motivated group trying to hold onto first place. The Blue Jays are on a 37-15 run at home, 21-8 following a loss. Toronto is also 16-7 against a team with a losing record, and last place Boston is in town winding up a nine-game trip. They've lost three of five and are 4-11 away vs. a team with a winning record. The Red Sox turn to little used 35-year-old Rich Hill, who is 0-1 with a 5.17 ERA in nine career appearances (two starts) in his career against Toronto. The Red Sox are 5-13 on the road against a left-handed starter and face veteran southpaw Mark Buehrle (14-7, 3.66 ERA). Toronto is 25-11 when Buehrle faces a team with a losing record, plus the team is 5-2 when he starts against rival Boston. Play Toronto.
