Tampa Bay is 1-5 in their last 6 game five’s of a series and 3-7 in their last 10 road games. The under is 4-1 in Tampa Bay’s last 5 Sunday games. Toronto is 5-3 in their last 8 home games and 4-3 in their last 7 games. The over is 4-1 in Toronto’s last 5 Sunday games. The under is 12-3-3 in these two teams last 18 head to head meetings.

Tampa Bay swept Toronto in their double header on Saturday in pretty convincing fashion. Tampa Bay hasn’t been the best offensive team this season, but was able to score a combined 17 runs in both games on Saturday. In this game, Ross Stripling is starting for Toronto and has been terrific in recent starts. Stripling has only allowed five runs in his last five starts. I like Toronto to bounce back after a rough Saturday.
