Having pitched exclusively in the American League before this season, Garland started against the Brewers only once during his first nine years in the majors. That came with the Chicago White Sox in 2000, with the 29-year-old tossing seven innings of two-run ball to register a win. Milwaukee went 5-2 against Arizona in 2008, with a three-game sweep of the D'Backs at home from June 2-4. The Brewers are 11-4 in the series since the start of th |

Hoping to avoid that for the Jays today will be left-hander Brian Burres, who will be trying to bounce back from an awful season debut on Saturday. Burres was pounded by the Chicago White Sox in that one, as he allowed six runs and seven hits in 4 1/3 innings. Burres is 0-1 lifetime against the Royals with a 3.75 ERA in three games (two starts). Kansas City will counter with righty Kyle Davies, who is 1-1 this season with a 4.88 ERA. Dav |
