BLUE JAYS KEY TRENDS: Over their last 30 games, the Blue Jays are now 9-21 and are just 4-11 in their last 15 road games. They’re also 3-10 in their last 13 road games versus a right-handed starter and have lost nine of their last 10 games following a win.

YANKEES KEY TRENDS: The Yankees remain hot, winning four of their last five games overall. They’ve also been a profitable bet at home, winning 35 of their last 51 games at Yankee Stadium. That said, with Severino on the mound at home, the Bronx Bombers are just 2-6 over that span.
