Games of the Day

Jose Berrios faces Chris Tillman as the Twins battle the Orioles. Berrios is off to a great start, pitching 15 1/3 innings in two starts, walking two and striking out 15. That led to just four hits. Tillman struck out 12 in his 15 1/3 innings since returning from an injury, but allowed six runs along the way.

Marcus Stroman of Toronto takes on Matt Garza of the Brewers. Stroman is 3-0 on the road in four starts. His 2.63 ERA away has been supported by 26 runs. Garza shows great control this season, striking out 22 and walking just six in 29 2/3 innings.

Martin Perez meets Chris Sale as the Rangers continue their series in Boston. Perez allowed a .295 BA this season, but just .217 (10 for 46) with runners in scoring position. Sale’s streak of start with at least 10 strikeouts stands at eight. Just as outstanding is his 12 walks in 88 innings during the same streak.

Finally Mike Leake and the Cardinals battle Rich Hill and the Dodgers. Leake owns a 1.89 ERA at home, 2.25 on the road, but his record is 3-0 away, 1-2 in St. Louis. The Cardinals scored 12 runs in his five starts at home, 17 in his three road wins. Hill made a triumphant return from his blister in his last start, holding the Giants to one run in five innings of work.

Enjoy!
