Toronto started Tuesday with a 73-53 record, but has dropped back-to-back games. Monday, the Blue Jays fell to Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates. Toronto sits five games ahead in the American League East standings of both the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees.

The Toronto Blue Jays need Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (hamstring) to be successful, but not against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday. They won 7-3 at PNC Park without their star after he left Monday’s 5-2 loss early.
