June 04, 2016

Pitcher Jason Hammel of the Chicago Cubs doesn't want to be an easy out when he's at the plate. He wants to be the ninth hitter in a formidable lineup.

Manager Pete Mackanin of the Philadelphia Phillies thought his team was in for a good day after the second inning. But his offense went quietly and his bullpen faltered late.

Mike Pelfrey's prospects of getting his first victory with the Detroit Tigers seemed dim even before his start on Saturday.

The Tampa Bay Rays recorded four home runs among their 11 hits in a 7-4 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Saturday at Target Field.
