New York Yankees vs. Toronto Blue Jays Live Stream: Watch Online, A.L. East Teams Clash at 7:05 p.m. ET

The New York Yankees look to rebound against the Toronto Blue Jays in the first of three game series. Check out the live stream available to those Yankee and Blue Jay fans outside of their respective markets. Let's look at the pitching matchups for this game as first pitch is scheduled for a little after 7:05 p.m. ET.

The home team, the Blue Jays, will have Brandon Morrow on the mound. The No. 2 starter for the blue birds has struggled a bit in 2013. In three starts, he owns a 4.60 ERA and a 0-1 record. He's truly worst outing came against the Detroit Tigers where he surrendered five runs in 3.2 innings pitched recording no strikeouts and walking two batters. Morrow then bounced back, but received no backing from his offense going six innings of two-run baseball with no win to show for his effort.

Opposing Morrow and on the mound for the Yankees is left-hander, Andy Pettitte. A lot of us have either grown up or grown old watching Pettitte pitch. The 41-year-old Texas native will take the mound for the first in 10 days. His last start came against the Cleveland Indians where he received plenty of run support. Pettitte went seven innings of one run baseball and for the second consecutive outing he went at least seven innings while giving up just a run. So far in 2013, Pettitte has pitched 15 innings allowing just two earned runs.

Pettitte will be a key component in the Yankees starting rotation, especially if they expect to compete in 2013 as the team relies heavily on its pitching rather than its offense.

The Yankees are coming off an extra inning loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks where a Francisco Cervelli game-tying home run in the ninth inning went to waste. The Yankees offense will look to awaken after getting shutdown by a 24-year-old lefty, Patrick Corbin. Meanwhile, the Blue Jays are coming off a 3-1 victory over the Chicago White Sox as they play their first full week without Jose Reyes.

Click here as the Yankees will look to bounce back against a mediocre Blue Jays team that is trying to fight out of the depts of the A.L. East.
