The Athletics won all seven games against the Blue Jays last season, the first time either team has swept the other in a single season. Oakland's seven-game winning streak is the longest in the series since the A's also won seven straight between the 1998 and 1999 seasons.

The Blue Jays won their first series since their season-opening set, taking three of four at Minnesota. The Jays have scored 63 of their 75 runs after the third inning this season -- their 12 runs in innings 1-3 are the second fewest in baseball (San Francisco -- 10).

Oakland split a two-game set with Houston, totaling just three runs and eight hits between the two games. The A's had put up at least 10 hits in each of their previous seven games.

Teoscar Hernandez slashed .400/.438/.800 with two home runs and six RBI in the series against the Twins. He had totaled six RBI over his first 15 games of the season while slashing .204/.298/.286.

Aaron Brooks has made two starts against Toronto in his career, making just seven total outs while giving up 15 runs for an ERA of 57.86. This season he is 2-1 but has allowed eight runs in 11.0 innings in his last two starts after throwing six scoreless innings in his first start.

Marcus Stroman is 0-3 despite having an ERA of 1.99. He is the fourth pitcher in the divisional era (since 1969) to go 0-3 or worse with an ERA under 2.00 and first since San Diego's Dustin Moseley in 2011. Stroman has the lowest average run support among qualifying pitchers at 0.40 per nine innings.

One team carries the momentum of a series win, the other the emotional lift of a signing when the visiting Toronto Blue Jays and well-rested Oakland Athletics open a three-game series Friday night.
The A's were off Thursday, their third day without a game in the last six, while the Blue Jays were wrapping up their first series win of the season with a 7-4 triumph at Minnesota.

Invigorated Blue Jays ready for well-rested A's

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP)  Of anybody who might have cost Marcus Stroman a complete game, old pal Kendrys Morales did it with a leadoff double in the ninth.
''K-Mo, that's my guy, I love K-Mo,'' Stroman said of his teammate until Morales' trade to Oakland last month. ''He put a great swing on a bad pitch. Wish K-Mo was still here, that's my guy.''
