Tonight, the Red Sox look to become the first team to sweep a series from the AL East-leading Blue Jays in the finale of a three-game set at Fenway Park.

A night after holding on for a 2-1 victory, Boston hit five homers Wednesday in an 8-3 win to move within 1 1/2 games of the surprising Blue Jays.

While Toronto will lose a series for just the third time, it's yet to drop three straight games in 2009. Toronto is 4-4 against opponents from the competitive East, but three of those wins came versus last-place Baltimore. The Blue Jays have lost four of five against the Yankees and Red Sox. Robert Ray makes his fourth career start for the Jays, while Boston's Jon Lester looks to avoid a third straight loss. Be sure to bet on MLB with Bodog today.
