Adrian Beltre sits four hits from 3000 as the Rangers host the Orioles. Chris Tillman goes for Baltimore, coming into the game with a 7.01 ERA and 87 hits allowed in 60 1/3 innings. Beltre hits Tillman well, 8 for 18 in his career with with two doubles, a home run, and no strikeouts. It might be a very good night for Beltre to collect multiple hits.
The surging Royals visit Boston as Jason Vargas face David Price. Vargas was hot through June, 12-3 with a 2.22 ERA, but allowed 14 runs in 12 2/3 July innings. I’m interested to see how fans react to David Price, since this is his first home start his details of his spat with Dennis Eckersley were made public. Price pitched well at Fenway this season, with a 2.67 ERA, five walks and 26 strikeouts in 27 innings.
Dallas Keuchel returns to the mound and Jose Altuve tries to extend his hit streak against Jordan Zimmermann as the Astros take on the Tigers. Keuchel was absent for a stretch of 46 games. In that time, Houston starters went 19-11 with a 4.54 ERA, while the team went 28-18. Zimmermann owns the fifth highest BA allowed this season, among pitchers facing at least 400 batters.
The Cubs and Brewers start a crucial NL Central series in Milwaukee as Jose Quintana takes on Brent Suter. In two starts since moving from the White Sox to the Cubs, Quintana pitched 13 innings, walked two and struck out 19. That’s good for a 2.02 ERA. Suter makes his sixth start to go with six relief appearances. He’s 1-1 with a 2.60 in his five starts this season.
