Where?

Buffalo New York!

Two right handed pitchers are going to be starting the game for New York, Toronto!

Why?

Because Gerrit Cole is going to be starting for New York and Ross Stripling is going to be starting for Toronto.

Gerrit Cole comes into the game with a record of 7-3 with an earn run average of 2.31.

Amid conversation about spin rate and "sticky stuff," Cole fired a solid effort on June 9 at Minnesota, striking out nine while permitting two solo homers over six innings. He will face Toronto for the third time this season.

Ross Stripling is going to be starting the game for Toronto!

Ross Stripling comes into the game with a record of 2-3 with an earn run average of 2.31.
