TORONTO — R.A. Dickey believes this year’s edition of the Toronto Blue Jays is in better shape than last season’s.
The knuckleballer tossed seven innings of one-run baseball on Sunday afternoon as the Blue Jays defeated the Detroit Tigers 6-1, allowing five hits while striking out five and walking two as Toronto won for the eighth time in its past 10 games. Still, Dickey (7-9) thinks the Blue Jays have more momentum heading into the all-star break than last year’s team, which won the American League East crown and got to the American League Championship Series.
