Preview Roundups
June 12, 2016
Baltimore at Toronto 1:07 PM ET
The Toronto Blue Jays are trying to make a move in the American League East and a series win over the Baltimore Orioles would help. The Blue Jays will try to earn a series victory when they host the Orioles in the finale of the four-game set on Sunday.
Houston at Tampa Bay 1:10 PM ET
Dallas Keuchel has managed just three victories in his first 13 starts of 2016 after a remarkable campaign in which he went 20-8 with a 2.48 ERA to win the American League Cy Young Award. The talented left-hander looks to begin a revival on Sunday afternoon when his Houston Astros visit the Tampa Bay Rays for the rubber match of three-game series.
Oakland at Cincinnati 1:10 PM ET
Entering the weekend, the Oakland Athletics may have hoped a three-game series against the majors' worst pitching staff and a team winless in interleague play was just what they needed in order to stop their downward spiral. Instead, the host Cincinnati Reds have collected a couple of low-scoring victories on the strength of their rotation and bullpen, and look to complete a sweep of Oakland on Sunday.
Chi. Cubs at Atlanta 1:35 PM ET
The venue has not mattered this season to the Chicago Cubs, who come into Sunday’s series finale at the Atlanta Braves looking to win for the 20th time in 30 road contests. One night after an uncharacteristic poor offensive showing in Friday’s 5-1 loss, the Cubs smashed four homers in an 8-2 rout, giving them a run differential of plus-151 through 60 games as baseball's best team improved to 42-18.
