Recap Roundups
June 02, 2017
Chi. Cubs 3, St. Louis 2
The outcome was certainly a relief for the Chicago Cubs and not necessarily because they won on Friday.
Baltimore 3, Boston 2
The combination of Alec Asher's pitching plus the power of Seth Smith and Manny Machado helped the Baltimore Orioles win their third straight game Friday night.
San Francisco 10, Philadelphia 0
The last two times Ty Blach tried to go longer than seven innings, the San Francisco Giants rookie hit something of a wall.
Toronto 7, NY Yankees 5
Francisco Liriano gave the Toronto Blue Jays everything they could have expected in his return from the disabled list Friday night.
Miami 7, Arizona 5
Giancarlo Stanton set a Miami Marlins record on Friday night, even if his manager, Don Mattingly, wasn't impressed.
Cincinnati 3, Atlanta 2
Talk about immediate gratification.
Pittsburgh 12, NY Mets 7
Few managers in baseball are more aware of the game's unpredictable whims than Pittsburgh Pirates skipper Clint Hurdle, who reached the major leagues and made the cover of Sports Illustrated at age 20 but played just 515 big league games, none after his 30th birthday.
Detroit 15, Chi. White Sox 5
Miguel Cabrera has reached another milepost on a baseball journey that seems destined to lead him to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y.
Houston 7, Texas 1
Things are going so well for the Houston Astros right now that they're making things look easy even in places where they've had no success.
LA Dodgers 2, Milwaukee 1
Clayton Kershaw was as good as he has been all season, but it wasn't enough to get the decision for the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night.
Kansas City 4, Cleveland 0
A year ago, Jason Vargas was rehabbing from 2015 Tommy John surgery, which would limit him to three September starts and 12 innings last season.
Washington 13, Oakland 3
Right-hander Stephen Strasburg wasn't nearly at his sharpest, and suspended slugger Bryce Harper wasn't in the lineup Friday night for the Washington Nationals.
Minnesota 11, LA Angels 5
The Minnesota Twins aren't exactly a power-hitting bunch, their 58 home runs entering Friday night's game against the Los Angeles Angels better than only two other American League teams.
Seattle 12, Tampa Bay 4
Shortly after Friday night's game, Taylor Motter dashed back onto the field to watch a fireworks display.
San Diego 8, Colorado 5
When a team is 23-33 overall, five straight wins might not seem like a big thing.
