    <h3>Blue Jays, Athletics open three-game set</h3>



    <div class="pre">Oakland (61-64) at Toronto (63-60) 7:07 pm EDT</div>

    TORONTO (Ticker) -- The Toronto Blue Jays will take on theOakland Athletics in the first game of a three-game series onMonday as both teams look to salvage disappointing seasons inthe final month and a half of regular-season play.

    The Blue Jays have won three of their five series in August andsplit a four-game set against the Kansas City Royals from August10-13. Despite the strong play, Toronto (63-60) is 10 1/2games behind of the first-place Boston Red Sox in the AmericanLeague East.


    After ending last season with a loss to the Detroit Tigers inthe AL Championship Series, key injuries to designated hitterMike Piazza and closer Houston Street have led to the Athletics'(61-64) poor performance this season.


    One pitcher contributing to the Blue Jays' resurgence in thesecond half of the season has been Shaun Marcum (10-4, 3.31).The righthander, who has won his last five starts, is 6-1 with a2.76 ERA in seven outings since the All-Star break.

    In his last start, Marcum allowed one run and four hits with sixstrikeouts over seven innings of a 2-1 win over the Los AngelesAngels of Anaheim on Wednesday.


    Marcum has only faced the Athletics once in his career, allowingtwo runs and five hits over 4 2/3 innings in the Blue Jays' 4-3win on July 28, 2006.


    Joe Blanton (10-8, 3.64 ERA) will look for his third win in hislast four starts when he takes the mound for the A's. Blantonpitched seven scoreless innings, allowing five hits, in a 3-2victory over the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday.


    Blanton hurled a complete game in his last start againstToronto. The righthander surrendered just one run and four hitsin a 3-1 win on July 3.


    For his career, Blanton is 3-2 with a 3.43 ERA in six startsagainst the Blue Jays.
