Toronto's offense is heating up, scoring 27 runs the last six games. The Blue Jays, who led the majors in homers in 2015, belted four solo blasts in the 6-1 victory over Tampa Bay on Friday. Toronto lefty J.A. Happ (3-0, 2.42 ERA) is throwing well and the Blue Jays are 20-6 when their opponent scores two or fewer runs in their previous game. While Toronto is #13 in baseball in runs scored, Tampa Bay is dead last in runs and on base percentage. The Rays are 2-for-26 with runners in scoring position during the first four games of their current homestand. Tampa Bay starter Chris Archer (1-4, 5.47 ERA) has gotten off to a poor start with opponents hitting .313 off him. That included a 5-3 loss to this Toronto team at home, putting Archer on a 4-10 run in his last 14 home decisions. Back Toronto.
