 The Royals lost two of three games in their most recent series against Cleveland, but the team has won six of its last 11 games overall. Since June 16, Kansas City is batting an MLB-best .378 (37-for-98) with runners in scoring position.

 The Blue Jays were swept by the Yankees in their last series, losing three games by a total of four runs. At the mid-point of the season, Toronto's 29-52 (.358) record is its worst through 81 games in a season since 1981 - 27-54 (.333).

 Kansas City has played 81 games this season, and Whit Merrifield leads the majors with 103 hits. Merrifield's 103 hits are the most by a Royals player in the team's first 81 games of a season since Mike Sweeney had 106 in 2002.

 Adalberto Mondesi has 30 extra-base hits and 27 stolen bases this season. He is the first AL player 24 years old or younger with 30+ extra-base hits and 25+ stolen bases prior to July since Roberto Alomar in 1991 (based on season age).

 Since being recalled from the minors on May 24, Lourdes Gurriel Jr. has posted a .347/.385/.727 slash line with 12 home runs in 31 games. Over that time, Gurriel ranks third in the majors with a 1.112 OPS, trailing only Ketel Marte (1.210) and Mike Trout (1.136; min. 100 PA).

 Freddy Galvis has drawn one walk in 101 plate appearances against left-handed pitchers this season. Kansas City's scheduled starter, Danny Duffy, has walked at least one batter in 41 consecutive appearances, the second-longest active streak in the majors behind Toronto's Aaron Sanchez (56).

HP - Hoye, 1B - Carlson, 2B - Gibson, 3B - Segal

The Toronto Blue Jays started out the second half of their schedule in the right way if they intend to make up for a dismal first half.
They defeated the Kansas City Royals 6-2 Friday night in the 82nd game of the season for each team. Both teams entered the four-game series, which continues Saturday, on a pace to lose more than 100 games each this year.

Struggling Jays, Royals seek better 2nd half

TORONTO (AP)  More than halfway through the season, Blue Jays catcher Danny Jansen finally went deep at home.
He couldn't have picked a better moment.
