Tips and Trends
Toronto Blue Jays at Boston Red Sox
Blue Jays: Toronto is 12-5 this month and has benefited from playing 12 of 17 May games at home, but will get a test during a nine-game road trip. The Blue Jays have scored a major league-leading 234 runs and hit an AL-best .289. Since a disastrous outing April 29 in Kansas City when he allowed 10 runs in four innings, left-hander Brian Tallet has gone 1-0 with a 2.70 ERA in three starts. Tallet won his only start against Boston with six scoreless innings in a 7-1 victory for Cleveland on Sept. 16, 2002. He's since made 15 relief appearances versus the Red Sox, going 0-1 with a 5.87 ERA.
The Over is 10-3 in the Blue Jays' last 13 games as a road underdog.
