I did like this much better when it opened at 9. Boston had to play at Detroit and face Justin Verlander in game one and was shut down and then lost 3-2 but they scored plenty of runs on Sunday in a game they led most of the time.
Toronto played at Cleveland and went 2-1 with both wins in extra innings and now go home for the opener in Toronto.
They have played over 10-2 in last 12 in Canada and the Blue Jays have scored 13, 7 and 12 in home openers in the last 3 years and are led by home run threat Jose Basista.
