Preview Roundups
June 05, 2017
St. Louis at Cincinnati 7:10 PM ET
The St. Louis Cardinals have had their problems on the road since sweeping a three-game series at Miami in early May but hope to change their fortunes when they begin a four-game set against the Cincinnati Reds on Monday. St. Louis has lost six of its last seven contests away from home, including the first three of its seven-game road trip.
Philadelphia at Atlanta 7:35 PM ET
Losing Freddie Freeman figured to devastate the Atlanta Braves, but the acquisition of Matt Adams and a strong offense have kept the team afloat entering its four-game home series against the Philadelphia Phillies, which begins Monday. Obtained in a May 20 trade with St. Louis, Adams hit his fifth homer in 13 games with the club as the Braves wrapped up a 4-5 road trip with Sunday’s 13-8 victory at Cincinnati.
San Francisco at Milwaukee 7:40 PM ET
Eric Thames made a big return to the lineup for the Milwaukee Brewers and will try to get hot again as the club continues a homestand with the first of four games against the San Francisco Giants on Monday. Mired in a 4-for-33 slump and with just one home run since May 9, Thames was out of the starting lineup in Saturday's loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers, but he slugged his 15th homer to help the Brewers salvage the finale of the three-game set 3-0.
Miami at Chi. Cubs 8:05 PM ET

The Chicago Cubs hope to look back on this week as the point they turned their season around. The defending World Series champion Cubs look to match their season high with a fourth consecutive victory when they host the Miami Marlins for the opener of a three-game series Monday.

Houston at Kansas City 8:15 PM ET
The Houston Astros needed only 57 games this season to do something they never had done in their 55-year history - establish a division lead greater than 13 games. Already off to the best start in club history and sitting on the largest division lead in the majors, the Astros take aim at another team record Monday as they seek an 11th straight road victory when they begin a four-game series against the Kansas City Royals.
Toronto at Oakland 10:05 PM ET
Josh Donaldson has found his home run stroke and looks to keep the Toronto Blue Jays' surge going when they open a three-game series at the Oakland Athletics on Monday. Donaldson, who came off the disabled list late last month, has slugged four homers in a span of five games, the latest a go-ahead shot in the eighth inning of Sunday's 3-2 win over the New York Yankees.
Washington at LA Dodgers 10:10 PM ET
After beating up on a pair of last-place teams on the first two stops of their three-city road trip, the Washington Nationals have a chance to prove why they own the best record in the National League. The Nationals attempt to exact a small measure of revenge against the team that knocked them out of the playoffs last season when they begin the final leg of their nine-game West Coast trek Monday with the first of three contests against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
