Cliff Lee is going like gangbusters, but this is a talented Toronto offense he’s facing. And the Skydome is a tough pitcher’s park. Lee has been dominant at home, but far less on the road, at 2-4 with a 4.30 ERA on the road. He’s also 2-4 in his career against Toronto with a 3.81 ERA, allowing more hits than innings pitched. As a team, Philadelphia plays its best at home, but just 21-17 on the road and the Phillies are 1-4 in Lee’s last five road starts vs. a team with a losing record. The Blue Jays rank No. 8 in runs scored and No. 7 in slugging. The Blue Jays are 6-2 in their last eight games vs. a left-handed starter and have more than enough offense at home to keep this close or even steal a win. Play the Blue Jays.
