The Orioles (30-33) open a weekend set in Toronto tonight against the Blue Jays (30-33).
The American East rivals bring identical records to the field tonight. Each sits eight games behind the Rays in the American League East but just ½ game out of the final Wild Card spot. The O’s arrive in Toronto playing well of late, going 7-3 over its last 10 games and outscoring opponents by 20 runs over the past 10 games. Toronto has been more inconsistent at 5-5 over that same stretch including a four-game split with these Orioles to close out May.
Baltimore’s offense has been trending upward over the last ten games. The Orioles as a team are hitting .281 over their last 10 games. Leody Taveras has been one of the team’s hottest hitters over the past 10 games, going 11-for-37, while Pete Alonso continues to anchor the lineup with 12 home runs and 38 RBIs. Toronto’s lineup has shown pop at times but lacks consistency. Nathan Lukes is 15-for-33 over his last 10 games, while Ernie Clement continues to lead the team in batting average, hitting .308 on the season. The Blue Jays have hit .275 over their last 10 games.
Tonight’s pitching matchup features a pair of right-handers in Baltimore’s Brandon Young and Toronto’s Trey Yesavage. Young allows plenty of traffic on the bases but takes the pill with a record of 3-1 with a 3.35 ERA and a 1.37 WHIP. Yesavage burst on the scene last postseason for the Jays and has been one of the more effective young arms in the American League, posting a record of 2-2 with a 2.19 ERA and a 1.16 WHIP. A true strength of Yesavage is his ability to limit hard contact, including not allowing a home run through 37 innings this season.
