Recap Roundups
August 24, 2016
Houston 5, Pittsburgh 4
By a pitcher's timetable, 31 days can seem like an eternity. That's how long Collin McHugh went between wins -- from July 23 to Wednesday.
Milwaukee 7, Colorado 1
Don't ask manager Craig Counsell to explain why his Milwaukee Brewers are so much better at home than on the road. He can't figure it out, either ... not that he's complaining, mind you.
Oakland 5, Cleveland 1
Andrew Triggs, Sean Manaea and Kendall Graveman aren't the types of names the Cleveland Indians figure to see in the playoffs this season.
NY Yankees 5, Seattle 0
Yankees rookie Gary Sanchez continued his historic power surge, but the two chances he was denied garnered almost as much attention.
Chi. Cubs 6, San Diego 3
It was more than a sweep, it was a demonstration.
Baltimore 10, Washington 8
The visiting team began the night by scoring four runs in the first inning.
LA Angels 8, Toronto 2
The Los Angeles Angels are not going anywhere this season, but Albert Pujols keeps moving up.
Tampa Bay 4, Boston 3
Of all the ways a game can end in extra innings, the walk-off error might be the most frustrating.
Miami 3, Kansas City 0
On an eventful night at Marlins Park, the Miami Marlins survived Jose Fernandez's cramps and a near meltdown by closer Fernando Rodney.
Texas 6, Cincinnati 5
Yu Darvish is confident in his swing.
Philadelphia 5, Chi. White Sox 3
Right-hander Jerad Eickhoff allowed a sixth inning home run and little else to help lead the Philadelphia Phillies to a 5-3 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday.
Detroit 9, Minnesota 4
Miguel Cabrera homered and finished a triple short of the cycle as the Detroit Tigers hammered the Minnesota Twins 9-4 on Wednesday night at Target Field.
St. Louis 8, NY Mets 1
Stephen Piscotty stood in front of his locker and explained the Wednesday night game simply.
Arizona 10, Atlanta 9
Brandon Drury did not hit the longest of sacrifice flies, but his line drive to short left field was all the Arizona Diamondbacks needed for their second walk-off victory in three games.
LA Dodgers 1, San Francisco 0
Rich Hill upstaged Johnny Cueto, and the Los Angeles Dodgers added to the woes of the reeling San Francisco Giants.
LA Dodgers 1, San Francisco 0
Justin Turner's homer was the difference as the Los Angeles Dodgers recorded a 1-0 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday night at Dodger Stadium.
