The Orioles will be in Toronto to take on the Blue Jays for game 1, Friday at 7:07 ET.
There has been no starter named for the Orioles yet and Steven Matz is going for the Blue Jays.
Toronto won the series when these teams met last.
Baltimore Orioles
The Orioles have had a very bad season so far, but they seem to enjoy playing the role of spoiler.
They have been in last place of the American League East for what seems like the whole year. It is on to 2022 for this club.
Baltimore knocked off the Red Sox on Thursday by a score of 6-2 and they ended up taking 2 of 3 from Boston. In those games, they scored 10 runs and allowed 10 runs.
Alexander Wells went 6 innings and allowed 1 earned run on Thursday.
At this time, there has been no official announcement about who is starting on Friday.
The pitching for this team has struggled throughout the year, but it sure looked fine against the Red Sox.
For as bad as this team is, hitting has not been their main issue. This team usually figures out ways to score runs.
The Birds have hit 192 home runs, which is 18th best in the game.
Toronto Blue Jays
The Blue Jays have not been playing great as of late and it could not be happening at a worse time.
If the season ended today, this team would not make the playoffs. They will likely have to run the table to make it past the regular season.
Toronto lost to the Yankees 6-2 on Thursday. New York took 2 games out of 3 in that series. In those games, the Jays scored 10 runs and allowed 18 runs.
Robbie Ray went 5.1 innings and allowed 5 earned runs on Thursday.
Steven Matz is 13-7 with an ERA of 3.88. His last start was against the Twins where he went 3 innings and allowed 2 earned runs. Minnesota won that game 7-2.
The pitching did not do a good enough job in this series with the Yankees. In particular, I expected more from Robbie Ray.
The offense was held in check for the most part in their last series. They will need to be much better in this one against the Orioles.
Toronto has hit 251 homers, which is the most in baseball.

The Blue Jays have been struggling, but this is a perfect series for them to get back on track. There are no more excuses, they have to sweep the series.
Toronto is the much better team and they need to show that in all three of these games. You cannot afford to lose to Baltimore.
Steven Matz will have to be much better in this start. Toronto needs to jump on whoever starts for the Orioles.
