Jon Lester will be looking to bounce back from his worst start of the season when the Boston Red Sox take on former Cy Young winner R.A. Dickey and the Toronto Blue Jays.

Jon Lester went to 2-3 on the season after he took the loss to the New York Yankees on Tuesday night. He was only able to 4.2 innings in that game because he gave up eight runs (three earned) on 11 hits. He was able to strike out seven Yankees, but he also walked four in the game. His ERA still sits at a low 2.67on the season and he is striking out nearly 10 batters per nine innings.

Jose Bautista has four home runs against Lester in his career, but he's batting just .204 in 54 at-bats. Edwin Encarnacion, like many hitters in the AL East, hasn't been able to figure Lester out yet, going just 7-for-36 against him with two home runs and seven strikeouts.

R.A. Dickey did pretty well against the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday, but he ended up with the no decision in a game the Blue Jays eventually won 9-3. He surrendered three runs in the game on six hits while striking out six and walking three. He still has a lot of work to do to lower his 5.90 ERA.

Shane Victorino has faced Dickey more than any other Red Sox player, and has just six hits against him in 25 at-bats.
