<p>The Pittsburgh Pirates are rolling into Toronto, and the Blue Jays are looking to stay hot having gone 6-4 in their last 10.</p>
<p></p>
<div id="2110" class="bam-inline-promotion-block"></div>
<p>Set to debut their new City Connect jerseys tonight, the Jays will see lefty Bailey Falter on the mound, who has had a good-not-great season for the Pirates. Jose Berrios goes for the Jays as he looks to continue to rebound after a May 7th start against the Phillies in which he got knocked around for eight earned runs.</p>
<p>In the three stars since, however, he&#8217;s gone 2-1 allowing just seven earned runs for a sparkling 3.15 ERA. And while you <em>technically</em> can&#8217;t remove a game from his ledger, if that start against the Phillies is excluded from the rest of his numbers on the year, his ERA plummets from 2.94 to 1.99.</p>
<p>There are no surprises with the order Friday, as Davis Schneider, Danny Jansen, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette will man the top of the order.</p>
