Games of the Day

The Indians and Twins finish their series with Carlos Carrasco facing Adalberto Mejia. Carrasco has struck out about four times the number of batter he walked in his career, and this season it’s very close to five. Mejia gets hit, but he doesn’t allow power, with a .306 BA against and a .367 slugging percentage against.

Dallas Keuchel faces Wade LeBlanc as Houston plays Seattle. After a rough June, Keuchel turned it around in July, posting a 1.65 ERA and allowing just one home run in 32 2/3 innings. LeBlanc is 6-0 at home with a 2.67 ERA, 0-1 on the road with a 4.57 ERA. He allows more power at home, but limits base runners better.

Chase Anderson takes the hill against Rich Hill as the Brewers battle the Dodgers. Anderson has his outfielders giving chase, as 43.4% of balls in play against him are fly balls. That’s tenth highest in the majors. Hill allowed just one run in two starts since the break, striking out 17 and walking five in 13 innings.

Enjoy!
