Toronto fell to 3-3 during interleague action with yesterday's 2-1 loss in Cincinnati and now continues an 11-day, 10-game road trip in Atlanta. The Blue Jays have posted a 14-10 all-time record against the Braves, including a 6-6 mark at Turner Field. It's important to note that over the past two seasons, the team leads interleague play with 34 round trippers. MVP-candidate outfielder Jose Bautista has the ability to leave the ball park in any at-bat and enters with a .348 batting average, two home runs and six RBIs against the National League this season. Toronto is 19-16 following a loss this year.
Blue Jays starting pitcher Ricky Romero has a good chance of improving his 6-6 record and 3.01 ERA in 14 starts this season. The left-hander has garnered a 3-1 mark and 2.03 ERA in six interleague starts and is coming off a brilliant performance last time out. Romero registered a 4-1 home victory against the Orioles, giving up just a single run and three hits over eight strong innings, while compiling a season-high 12 strikeouts.
