The Blue Jays and Rays split a four-game series in Tampa Bay April 3-6. All four games were decided by two or fewer runs.

Toronto has been held to one and zero runs, respectively, in its last two games. The last time the Blue Jays scored no more than one run in three consecutive games was July 3-5, 2014.

Of Tampa Bay's total 71 runs scored in 2016, 43 of them (60.6%) have come with two outs. That is the highest percentage in the majors.

Josh Donaldson is batting .316 (43/136) with 11 home runs versus left-handed pitchers since the start of last season. He is 6-for-11 (.545) with two homers in his career against Tampa Bay lefty Drew Smyly.

Despite posting a 1.69 (4/21.1) ERA and .153 (11/72) opponent BA in 10 career appearances versus them, Aaron Sanchez has never beaten the Rays (0-1). He threw 7.0 innings of one-run ball against them on April 5, but came away with a no decision.

Drew Smyly has held opposing batters to a .162 (16/99) average so far this season, which ranks fifth among AL pitchers (minimum four starts). Opponents hit .211 against him in his two April starts in 2015.
