May 31, 2015
Washington at Cincinnati 1:10 PM ET
The Washington Nationals are shedding key players and its finally catching up to the team in the win column. The Nationals hope to have Bryce Harper back in the lineup when they attempt to avoid a three-game sweep at the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday.
Miami at NY Mets 1:10 PM ET
Having won their first road series since April 21-23, the Miami Marlins will go for a three-game sweep of the New York Mets in Sunday's series finale. The Marlins, who had dropped 14 of 17 games entering the series, followed up Friday's 4-3 victory by swatting four homers - two by Giancarlo Stanton - in Saturday's 9-5 win.
Tampa Bay at Baltimore 1:35 PM ET

After snapping their longest losing streak of the season, the Tampa Bay Rays aim to claim a road series over an American League East rival when they face the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday. The Rays won 3-0 on Saturday to end their six-game skid and even the series heading into the rubber match. 

Colorado at Philadelphia 1:35 PM ET
After using Citizens Bank Park as a launching pad against the Philadelphia Phillies' top two pitchers in the first two games of their series, the Colorado Rockies look to flex their muscles yet again Sunday as they eye their third road sweep of the season. The Rockies, who won their first six contests away from Coors Field this year before dropping 10 of the next 11 on the road, appear to have found their groove once again outside of Colorado by winning four of their last five road games.
Chi. White Sox at Houston 2:10 PM ET
The Houston Astros matched the best 50-game start in franchise history and seek to continue their success when they host the Chicago White Sox in Sunday's finale of a three-game series. Houston ace Dallas Keuchel blanked the White Sox 3-0 on Saturday and the Astros' 32-18 record ties the 1998 squad for the best in team annals.
Toronto at Minnesota 2:10 PM ET
The surging Minnesota Twins can register their 20th victory in May when they host the Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday in the rubber match of a three-game series. Brian Dozier's tiebreaking RBI triple was the difference in Saturday's 3-2 victory as Minnesota evened the series and improved to an American League-best 19-7 this month.
Arizona at Milwaukee 2:10 PM ET
Paul Goldschmidt and the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks are punishing Milwaukee's beleaguered pitching staff and look to complete a three-game sweep of the skidding Brewers on Sunday in the series finale. Arizona belted four homers in Friday's 7-5 victory before Goldschmidt added a pair of blasts and four RBIs to fuel Sunday's 7-3 romp.
LA Dodgers at St. Louis 2:15 PM ET
The Los Angeles Dodgers apparently got back the missing piece of their offense when Yasmani Grandal was activated from the seven-day concussion list. The Dodgers will try to ride the momentum from Grandal’s return to a series win when they visit the St. Louis Cardinals for the rubber match of a three-game series on Sunday.
Kansas City at Chi. Cubs 2:20 PM ET

The Kansas City Royals will try to wrap up a sweep of their abbreviated road series against the Chicago Cubs on Sunday. The second game of the scheduled three-game interleague set was washed out by rain Saturday after Kansas City claimed the opener 8-4 behind three home runs. 

Boston at Texas 3:05 PM ET
The Boston Red Sox have reached the end of a disastrous road trip and  try to escape a four-game series with a split when they visit the Texas Rangers for the finale on Sunday. The Red Sox have dropped five of six on the trip as the league-worst starting rotation crumbles.
NY Yankees at Oakland 4:05 PM ET
New York's Carlos Beltran on Sunday looks to finish his resurgent May in style when the Yankees try for a series split with the host Oakland Athletics in the finale of their four-game set. Beltran batted .162 with zero home runs and seven RBIs in April, but is hitting .308 with four homers and 14 RBIs in the second month of the season after belting a go-ahead two-run homer and adding an insurance RBI in Saturday's 5-3 victory — first-place New York's fifth in its last 17 contests.
Atlanta at San Francisco 4:05 PM ET
The Atlanta Braves try to keep the momentum going from a rare victory over the Giants in San Francisco, but must get past Madison Bumgarner on Sunday in order to gain a split of the four-game series. Atlanta won for the fourth time in the last 15 meetings - and second in nine contests at AT&T Park - with an 8-0 victory Saturday and also snapped the Giants' six-game winning streak at home while handing San Francisco its third loss in 16 overall contests.
Cleveland at Seattle 4:10 PM ET
Robinson Cano returned from an illness to end a long home run drought and looks for another productive contest when the Seattle Mariners close a four-game series against the visiting Cleveland Indians on Sunday. Cano had been homerless since April 14 before going deep in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Indians as he was back in the starting lineup for the first time since Wednesday.
Detroit at LA Angels 8:05 PM ET
David Price seeks to win his fourth consecutive decision when the Detroit Tigers close a four-game series against the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday. Price's lone loss came April 22 and that marks the only time Detroit has lost one of his 10 starts this season.
Pittsburgh at San Diego 9:10 PM ET
The growing buzz in the National League Central is coming from the surging Pittsburgh Pirates, who have won eight of their last nine to pull within six games of the first-place St. Louis Cardinals. The Pirates wrap up a four-game series on Sunday against the disappointing San Diego Padres, who have fallen into fourth place in the NL West.
