A strong performance by a starting pitcher has marked each of the first five games of the Toronto Blue Jays’ road trip, and they hope another brilliant outing from Marc Rzepczynski decides their series with the Oakland Athletics on Wednesday afternoon. Beginning his second stint in the majors this season, Rzepczynski kicked off Toronto’s trip by limiting the Angels to two hits in seven innings of a 3-0 win on Friday night. The California native, who had a 3.67 ERA in 11 starts as a rookie with the Blue Jays last year, struck out six without walking a batter for his first career road win.

The Blue Jays have relied heavily on a major league-high 183 home runs, but impressive pitching has led Toronto to three wins already on this trip. Ricky Romero pitched seven innings in a 4-1 win over Los Angeles on Sunday, and Shaun Marcum’s one-hitter Monday keyed a 3-1 victory to open this series. Toronto has also been shut down by a starter in its two losses - including Tuesday, when Oakland’s Dallas Braden held the Blue Jays to three hits and one earned run in seven innings of his 6-2 win. Oakland managed to win despite going without a homer for the eighth time in its last nine games. The A’s rank last in the majors with 71 homers, 112 fewer than Toronto.
