These teams, facing off for the first time this season, have won 19 games apiece in their head-to-head meetings dating back to 2015, with just three total runs separating the clubs (Toronto has outscored Boston, 199-196, during that span).

The Red Sox have won three straight games to improve to 8-5 on the season, but have hit a total of just six home runs thus far, their fewest through 13 games since 1993 (5 HR through 13 games). Boston hasn't hit multiple home runs in 24 straight contests dating back to last September, the longest streak by the team since going 25 consecutive games from August 23 -- September 19, 1992.

The Blue Jays are just 2-10 on the season, their worst 12-game mark in franchise history. Toronto has been held to fewer than five runs in eight straight games, matching the team's longest streak from the 2016 season (eight straight from July 31 -- August 7).

Marcus Stroman was 0-1 with a 9.92 ERA in three starts against the Red Sox in 2016. Stroman went 4-0 with a 1.26 ERA in four outings against Boston during his first two seasons in the majors (2014-2015).

Brian Johnson is scheduled to make his second career start on Tuesday. Johnson, who lost his major-league debut on July 21, 2015 at Houston (4.1 IP, 4 runs allowed), posted a 1.69 ERA in two starts with Boston's Triple-A affiliate (Pawtucket) this season (no decision in either outing).

Xander Bogaerts (8-for-17; .471) and Dustin Pedroia (7-for-15; .467) are a combined 15-for-32 (.469) against Marcus Stroman throughout their careers. Those are the two highest averages by any opposing batters with at least 10 career at-bats against Stroman.

TORONTO -- Boston Red Sox right-hander Rick Porcello looks to bounce back from his first loss of the season when he gets the ball Wednesday night in the second contest of a three-game series against the Toronto Blue Jays.
Porcello (1-1, 7.56 ERA) surrendered eight earned runs on eight hits, including four homers, over 4 1/3 innings of a 10-5 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday.

Red Sox's Porcello looks to rebound vs. Blue Jays

TORONTO (AP)  Even though they came up short in a ninth-inning rally attempt a night earlier, Kevin Pillar and the Toronto Blue Jays were able to carry some much-needed momentum into Wednesday night.
Francisco Liriano and three relievers combined on a six-hitter, Darwin Barney hit a two-run single and the Blue Jays beat the Boston Red Sox 3-0.
