Games of the Day

I'm about to hit the road for the morning, so a quick Games of the Day. The Twins play a pair against the Tigers today, and a sweep can put a little distance between them and the Yankees in the wild card race. Houston goes for their seventh consecutive win vs. reeling Washington. Chicago-Boston, Oakland-Texas and New York-LAnaheim all have implications in the AL division and wild card races.

The Braves-Diamondbacks should be a good matchup as Sosa faces Halsey. Sosa may be the luckiest starter on the Braves staff. He's walked 19 in 24 innings as a starter, yet has a 2.63 ERA and a 2-0 record. After going through a rough stretch, Halsey pitched two good games in a row, allowing just three runs in his last 13 2/3 innings.

Enjoy!

However, if the Twins get swept today by Detroit the Tigers will move within 3 or 4 games of the wildcard spot depending on how the Yankees and As fare. Could end up with 8 teams within 4 games of the AL wildcard after today.
