The Phillies get a chance to bury the Nationals as they visit Washington for a three-game series. Vince Velasquez takes on Tanner Roark in game one. Both have won eight games and both own a 4.13 ERA. Those ERAs are going in different directions, however, as Velasquez owns a 4.97 ERA in three August starts, while Roark is at 2.61 in the same period.
Giancarlo Stanton returns to Miami as the Yankees visit the Marlins. Stanton had great success at Marlins Park, hitting .301/.399/.610 there with 68 home runs in 857 AB.
Finally, the Dodgers and Cardinals continue their west coast series with Daniel Poncedeleon facing Hyun-Jin Ryu. Poncedeleon is from Anaheim, so his family and friends are likely to be attending in force. He walked nine and struck out ten so far in 17 2/3 innings, but somehow managed to allow just eight hits. Ryu allowed just 19 hits in 35 2/3 innings, but he did it the more traditional way by striking out 42.
Enjoy!
