This will be the second game of a four-game series between the Athletics and the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Centre, which ranks 18th for park factor.

As of now, the Blue Jays lead 11-0 in the seventh inning of the opening game.

The Athletics have a record of 23-33, performing better on the road at 14-14, but struggling at home with only nine wins in 28 games.

The Blue Jays are 27-28 overall and 16-12 at home, sitting third in the American League East.

The Athletics are on a six-game road trip and have only one win in their last 14 games, including an 11-game losing streak. Toronto just completed a six-game road trip and is now home for seven games, going 5-5 in their last 10.

Jeffrey Springs will pitch for the Athletics, while Chris Bassitt takes the mound for Toronto. Springs, a lefty, averages 90.5 mph with an 18.8% strikeout rate.

He has a 3.97 ERA but a higher 4.63 FIP. His road stats are better, with opponents slashing .179/.250/.308 against him.

Bassitt has a 91.2 mph fastball, a 23.7% strikeout rate, and a 3.38 ERA supported by a 3.23 FIP. He has been much stronger at home, allowing just five earned runs in 28 innings.

The Athletics have the sixth-lowest strikeout rate against right-handed pitchers, while the Blue Jays rank high in offensive production.

Expect some damage from Toronto’s hitters, but Bassitt’s strong home performance should help keep the Athletics’ offense in check.

Best Bet: Blue Jays -1.5 Runs at +115 odds
