Athletics vs Toronto Blue Jays — 3月 29, 2026 | AI予測と統計

Toronto enters riding a two-game surge and has its No. 2 starter, Kevin Gausman, lined up on normal rest after Dylan Cease’s record-setting debut. Gausman’s dominant splitter profiles well against an Oakland lineup that has whiffed 28 times in the first two games of the series. The Athletics counter with left-hander Ken Waldichuk, whose fastball/slider mix struggles against right-handed power; Toronto’s right-heavy heart of the order (Bichette, Guerrero Jr., Springer) should see plenty of hittable pitches early. Expect the Blue Jays to strike first: a leadoff walk and a Guerrero Jr. RBI double plate a run in the opening frame. The decisive blow comes in the fourth, when Bichette lifts a two-run shot on a hanging slider, pushing the margin to 3-1 and forcing Oakland to the bullpen by the fifth. Gausman scatters five hits across six innings, surrendering solo homers in the third and sixth but consistently missing bats with his splitter in two-strike counts. Toronto’s relief trio of Swanson, Romano, and García slams the door, allowing only a cosmetic ninth-inning run after a defensive miscue. Meanwhile, a late insurance tally in the eighth—courtesy of a Kiermaier triple into the gap—gives the Jays breathing room. Bottom line: Toronto’s superior rotation depth, bullpen stability, and high-contact middle order extend the perfect start, completing the sweep while Oakland leaves town still searching for its first win.
