The Red Sox are reeling, coming off a disappointing loss at home to Toronto last night, blowing an 8-1 lead. They are a favorite here this afternoon, but I like the Blue Jays as an underdog coming in as winners of nine straight.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Pitching - The Blue Jays will hand the ball to veteran R.A. Dickey, who has been pretty sharp lately. Dickey (2-6, 5.35 ERA) gave up just a pair of runs on four hits over 5.2 innings in a win over Houston in his last start. Prior to that he allowed just two runs on eight hits in a 2-0 loss in an afternoon game at Washington. The Red Sox counter with Clay Buchholz, who was roughed up pretty good in his last outing.

2. Blue Jays Bats - They've scored an MLB best 338 runs, and that's 60 more than the Yankees who are second in the majors in scoring.

3. X-Factor - Toronto has won nine of it's last 13 visits to Fenway.

Selection: This is a play on the Toronto Blue Jays +1.5 (8*)
