TORONTO — Before the first pitch, Eduardo Rodriguez was 4-2 with a 4.89 ERA. He’d gotten 77 runs of support from the Red Sox in his nine starts. Marcus Stroman, who got the ball for the Blue Jays, was 1-6 with a 2.95 ERA. He’d gotten 22 runs of support in his 10 starts.
The polite way to put it would be to say that the law of averages was in effect Tuesday night. Stroman got plenty of run support, while Rodriguez had nowhere to hide in a 10-3 Blue Jays win in the second game of a four-game series.
