Recap Roundups
August 06, 2017
Tampa Bay 2, Milwaukee 1
For the first time in more than three years, the Tampa Bay Rays got a walk-off home run to celebrate.
NY Yankees 8, Cleveland 1
For New York Yankees manager Joe Girardi, whose team lost its first two games in Cleveland, a series split never felt so good.
St. Louis 13, Cincinnati 4
The St. Louis Cardinals have been waiting for a game like Sunday, when the hits came in bunches, especially with runners on base.
Baltimore 12, Detroit 3
The Baltimore Orioles powerful lineup can erupt at any time.
Miami 4, Atlanta 1
The Miami Marlins hit back-to-back home runs in the first inning and that was enough to get Jose Urena another road victory.
Pittsburgh 5, San Diego 4
Sean Rodriguez, picked up off of waivers Saturday, had 72 hours to report to the Pirates. But Pittsburgh, where he spent the previous two seasons as something of a super sub, felt like home.
Boston 6, Chi. White Sox 3
Chris Young doesn't get the chance to play every day, so he knows the importance of taking advantage of his opportunities.
Houston 7, Toronto 6
Facing the specter of a third consecutive series loss and a somber flight to Chicago, the Houston Astros accomplished something on Sunday that appeared wholly improbable given their debilitating injuries and continuing stretch of mediocrity since the All-Star Game break.
Minnesota 6, Texas 5
Five home runs through the first three innings had Sunday's game between the Texas Rangers and Minnesota Twins looking like it was going to be an offensive show.
Seattle 8, Kansas City 7
Danny Valencia, Kyle Seager and Nelson Cruz homered in the first two innings as the Seattle Mariners overpowered the Kansas City Royals 8-7 on Sunday afternoon in the opener of a doubleheader.
Washington 9, Chi. Cubs 4
The Washington Nationals' deep batting order eventually made a loud statement against the Chicago Cubs.
Philadelphia 3, Colorado 2
Staring at a sixth straight loss, and the most heartbreaking yet on the current road trip, the Philadelphia Phillies rallied in the ninth inning Sunday.
Oakland 11, LA Angels 10
There were many stories about the Oakland Athletics trading away three key pitchers near the trade deadline. What many forgot is that their offense remained essentially intact.
San Francisco 6, Arizona 3
The San Francisco Giants saw their playoff hopes die long ago this season, but they are making the most out of their unfamiliar role as spoilers.
Kansas City 9, Seattle 1
The Kansas City offense showed up big-time in a doubleheader Sunday split with the Seattle Mariners.
LA Dodgers 8, NY Mets 0
Life is so good for the Los Angeles Dodgers right now, even the so-called imperfections seem to fit into the mosaic perfectly.
