Chris Young pitched in relief in game one of the ALDS and allowed one run on three hits in four innings in Kansas City's 5-2 loss to the Astros. Toronto hitters have a combined .233 batting average against Young, who is 5-2 with a 2.52 ERA on the road this season. The tall right-hander finished the regular season allowing only two runs in his last 23 2/3 innings. R.A. Dickey is 9-3 with a .197 opponent batting average at home and he pitched seven shutout innings in his only appearance against the Royals on Aug. 2. Dickey gave up only one run in 4 2/3 innings with no walks in game four of the ALDS before surprisingly he was taken out of the game. Toronto is 6-1 in Dickey's last seven home starts and 12-3 his last 15 overall. The Royals are 7-3 UNDER their last 10 against right-handers and 4-0-1 UNDER in Young's last five road starts. Look for these teams to make some adjustments following last night's slugfest and for Toronto to benefit again from its home field advantage as the Blue Jays are 51-32 at Rogers Centre. Take the Blue Jays and the UNDER.
