David Price hopes to end Yankee struggles with Blue Jays

When the Blue Jays traded for David Price last week, many believed it could be the move to take Toronto to the next level.

The Yankees? They were probably just excited to get to face him again.

Price faced the Yankees five times last season, going 1-2 with a 5.76 ERA. He pitched well in three of his first four starts, but the fifth was a disaster as the Yankees hit him for eight runs on 12 hits over two-plus innings, including a stretch of nine consecutive hits to start the third inning that resulted in all eight runs.
