It hasn&#8217;t been the prettiest run for the Toronto Blue Jays as of late, but they have a chance to win their second series in a row Thursday afternoon.

After taking two of three games against the Minnesota Twins over the weekend, the Jays have a chance to do that again in the series finale against the Milwaukee Brewers this afternoon.
The Jays will be sending Kevin Gausman to the mound, while the Brewers will respond with Freddy Peralta. Toronto&#8217;s lone lineup change sees Tyler Heineman get behind the plate catching Gausman.
