The Bronx Bombers have been known to dominate opponents on Sundays at Yankee Stadium.

Toronto Blue Jays at New York Yankees

Toronto suffered one of its worst defeats of the year on Saturday afternoon, giving up an 11-run third inning to ultimately fall 11-3 at Yankee Stadium.  The 11 runs for the Yankees equaled a franchise-record for the most runs the Blue Jays have surrendered in a single inning.  “Everything happened in that inning that you could imagine,” manager Cito Gaston said.  Overall, the Jays have won six of their last 10 contests against the Yankees.  Toronto is now 8-12 at Yankee Stadium dating back to the 2008 season, with an even 4-4 mark the last eight meetings.  The team’s current road trip has been a forgettable one, being outscored 49-23 in nine games.  Toronto has lost both games as a road underdog of +175 to +200 in 2010, while posting a 3-11 record in this spot the past three years (-530).

The Giants are hoping starting pitcher Barry Zito’s success against tonight’s opponent will ultimately snap their losing streak.

San Francisco Giants at Colorado Rockies

San Francisco lost its seventh straight game in dropping a 6-3 contest to the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field.  The offense is much to blame during the streak, failing to score more than three runs in any contest over that span.  The Giants have now lost nine of their last 10 games and 11 of their previous 14.  Facing division foes will not make turning things around any easier, with the team going 8-19 against the NL West division this season (-1,500).  That mark gets even worse with the team being 2-10 on the road against divisional opponents.  The team has produced a dismal 3-7 record in games after three or more consecutive losses (-460).

The pressure is squarely placed on the Nationals offense with their young superstar on the hill.

New York Mets at Washington Nationals

New York has won two of its last three games, including a 5-3 victory on Friday night.  The Mets are 25-12 in their last 37 contests dating back to May 22, which is the second-best mark in the majors over that span (Boston).  Overall, the Mets are 17-23 (-410) on the road, but they have won two of three games away from Citi Field.  New York has scored at least one run in the first inning in its last four games, producing a 37-14 mark when scoring first.  The offense has been led by 3B David Wright’s NL-leading 63 RBI, which ranks third in the majors.  The Mets have not dropped a season series to the Nationals/Expos franchise since 2003.

The Yankees veteran starter is seemingly pitching for a spot on the All-Star roster and leading his team to victory.

Toronto Blue Jays at New York Yankees

Toronto picked up a 6-1 extra-innings victory over the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium on Saturday afternoon.  The Blue Jays streak of games without a home run was pushed to five games, as the team leads the majors with 115 home runs.  The six-run outburst was a relief to fans based on the team scoring just 1.8 runs per game during its five-game losing streak. Toronto’s pitching staff has been doing a tremendous job against the league’s second-best offense this year, posting a 1.55 ERA in four games against the Bronx Bombers.  A victory in game two of this series will be hard to come by, with the team producing a 7-13 record against left-handed starters (-560).  These struggles are nothing new due to the club’s 49-64 mark against southpaws the last three years (-2,020).

The Giants are falling fast in the NL West standings and are hoping their ace can stop the slide.

San Francisco Giants at Colorado Rockies

San Francisco is praying that its two-time Cy Young Award winner can jumpstart the club, as the team has lost a season-high six games.  The bullpen also needs an extended start by the rotation, as the unit has pitched 40.1 of the club’s last 96 innings.  “We can use an extra arm right now,” manager Bruce Bochy said.  The Giants have had all kinds of trouble against division opponents, producing a 8-18 versus the NL West (-1,400).  Tonight will be San Francisco’s second game of an 11-game, three-city trip, as the team has posted a 15-21 mark away from AT&T Park (-720).  The lineup has scored three runs-or-fewer in 36 of its 78 games this year, but there are still seven other teams in that National League that have had more games in the category.

The first place Braves enjoyed a well-deserved off day and now welcome the world traveling Marlins.

Florida Marlins at Atlanta Braves

Florida dropped a 6-5 decision to the New York Mets in a series finale that was played in San Juan, Puerto Rico.  The club is still adjusting to the guidance of new skipper Edwin Rodriguez, after the club dismissed Fredi Gonzalez in late June.  After taking two of three against the Mets in a series where they were designated the home team, the Marlins head off on a 10-game road trip.  Florida has won five of its last seven games away from Sun Life Stadium and should remain confident in playing at Turner Field.  The squad posted a 6-3 mark on the Braves home field last season.  Over the last three years, the Fish have posted a 98-75 mark against NL East opponents (+3,010).

Both teams get set for the second game of a holiday weekend series at the Friendly Confines.

Cincinnati Reds at Chicago Cubs

Cincinnati won its ninth consecutive extra-innings road game with a 3-2 win over the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field.  The Reds continue to show why their the best team in baseball in tight games with 15 final-at-bat wins.  Thursday’s game marked the beginning of the team’s longest road trip of the season, which will last until the All-Star break.  The lineup tallied 16 hits in the game, but still stranded 13 runners on base while going 2-for-11 with runners in scoring position.  Cincinnati moved its road record to 18-16 on the season (+320) and continues to be rock solid 23-14 against divisional foes (+890).

Some baseball teams love the hot, sticky days of July – it’s when they are at their best. Others play like they would rather be off at the beach or on the golf course or anywhere other than at the ballpark. There are of course many factors that go into how a team plays at a certain time, and you can get in trouble with broad assumptions. There are some teams, though, that consistently exhibit the same behavior in July. that doesn’t mean that you should be those teams blindly this year, but it does mean that you could keep an eye on them, and if they look like they are going to repeat their past performances then you could climb on board for the ride. Here’s a look at six teams that have shown particular love or hate for July in recent years. I’ll ignore teams like the Royals, Nationals and Orioles – they have been lousy in July, but they’ve been lousy every other month as well:
