Wang searching for win when Yankees host Blue Jays

Jun 5, 2008 - 12:36 PM Toronto (32-29) at NY Yankees (29-30) 1:05 p.m. EDT

BRONX, New York (Ticker) -- NEW YORK (Ticker) -- Chien-Ming Wang tries to end the longest winless streak of his career on Thursday when the New York Yankees host the Toronto Blue Jays in the finale of a three-game series.

Wang (6-2, 4.14 ERA) hasn't earned a victory since a 5-1 win against the Seattle Mariners on May 2 - a span of five starts.

The 28-year-old righthander has two losses and three no decisions since his last win and has been roughed up in his previous three starts, allowing 17 runs over 19 1/3 innings.

Wang surrendered just two runs and six hits in seven innings, earning the win during his last start against the Blue Jays - a 3-2 victory on Opening Day. The Yankees' ace is 4-2 with a 3.98 ERA in eight career starts against Toronto.

Dustin McGowan (4-4, 3.95) goes for his third win in as many starts when he toes the rubber for the Blue Jays.

McGowan has allowed just four earned runs in his last 13 innings, striking out 13 during his last two outings.
