Help, save, whatever.

Hopefully they can keep this going. By the sounds of it they had been pretty unlucky hte last few months.
Quote:
April: 122 runs scored, 115 runs allowed (plus-7)
May: 146 runs scored, 128 runs allowed (plus-18)
June: 156 runs scored, 96 runs allowed (plus-60)
July: 126 runs scored, 107 runs allowed (plus-19)
Even when the Blue Jays were playing sub-.500 ball, they were regularly outscoring opponents overall. That's held up so far this month, when they've outscored opposing teams by a 45-22 margin -- i.e, the Blue Jays are scoring two runs for every one run they allow. That's a pretty effective way to narrow a considerable division gap.
On the season, Toronto has scored 595 runs and allowed 468, putting them 127 in the black. That's an average advantage of 1.13 runs per game. The next-best mark in the league is the Astros', with fewer than three-quarters of a run per game.
