The last time these teams faced each other (July 12), the Royals picked up an 11-10 victory at home -- the first game between the teams where each scored double-digit runs since August 6, 1979 (a 16-12 Royals win).

The Kansas City Royals are 17-9 in July, assured of a sixth consecutive calendar month with a winning record. That's tied for the longest such streak in franchise history (two other occasions).

The Blue Jays' 8-2 win over the Phillies last night leaves them with a .500 record (51-51) for the 18th time this season, tied with the Angels for the most in MLB.

Toronto leads the majors with 5.27 runs per game, nearly half a run more than the second-place Yankees (4.79). That would be the second-largest difference in the expansion era between baseball's two highest-scoring teams. In 1976, the Reds averaged 0.54 more runs than any other team in the league.

Mark Buehrle, who has lost just once (6-1) over his last 10 starts against the Royals, has won 26 games over his career against the Royals -- second most all-time (Bert Blyleven, 34 career wins vs. KC).

Over his last six road games, Eric Hosmer is 15-for-28 (.536) with two home runs and eight RBI, and has at least two hits in each game.

HP - Barry, 1B - Wolf, 2B - Basner, 3B - Hernandez

With a whole new look and a lot more swagger, the Toronto Blue Jays have been playing very well against the top club in the American League.
After coming out on the losing end of an exciting slugfest with Kansas City, the Blue Jays look to take three of four from the Royals in Sunday's series finale.

Royals-Blue Jays Preview

TORONTO (AP)  After a big win over the Blue Jays, it was slow jam time in the Kansas City Royals clubhouse. Seated around a table in the middle of the room, Kendrys Morales and Danny Duffy gave a spirited sing-along to Whitney Houston's `I Will Always Love You.''
Maybe they were dedicating it to new teammate Ben Zobrist.
