Recap Roundups
August 31, 2016
Detroit 3, Chi. White Sox 2
JaCoby Jones' dream day morphed into a 48-hour extravaganza on Wednesday afternoon.
Boston 8, Tampa Bay 6
The buses were parked outside, ready to help send the Boston Red Sox on another West Coast trip, this one starting the September stretch run in the battle for the American League East.
Texas 14, Seattle 1
Having again beaten a good American League starter, the Texas Rangers are now in position to leave the rest of the AL West in the rearview mirror.
Houston 4, Oakland 3
Oakland Athletics left-hander Ross Detwiler had shackled the Astros lineup so effectively that the lone hope for the Astros seemingly was to ride him out and take their chances against the first reliever to emerge from the Oakland bullpen. That reliever was right-hander Liam Hendriks, and that gambit worked to perfection.
Colorado 7, LA Dodgers 0
Tyler Anderson was on the Coors Field mound Tuesday, warming up to start the game against the Los Angeles Dodgers while heavy rain was falling.
Colorado 7, LA Dodgers 0
The Colorado Rockies took the field, and left-hander Tyler Anderson was throwing warm-up pitches in heavy rain Tuesday night before the umpires called for the tarp.
San Francisco 4, Arizona 2
Matt Moore isn't scheduled to pitch for the San Francisco Giants in their big four-game series against the Chicago Cubs that starts Thursday.
Toronto 5, Baltimore 3
Jose Bautista and Russell Martin each hit first-inning homers to give Toronto a lead it never lost and the Blue Jays defeated the Baltimore Orioles 5-3 on Wednesday night.
LA Angels 3, Cincinnati 0
When the Los Angeles Angels acquired Ricky Nolasco from the Minnesota Twins on Aug. 1, it was apparent the two teams were playing a game of "hot potato" with the veteran right-hander.
Washington 2, Philadelphia 1
Wilson Ramos drove in the go-ahead run with a seventh-inning single as the Washington Nationals beat the Philadelphia Phillies 2-1 on Wednesday night, completing a sweep of the three-game series.
Cleveland 8, Minnesota 4
Corey Kluber pitched eight strong innings and Carlos Santana and Roberto Perez homered as the Cleveland Indians completed a three-game sweep of the Minnesota Twins with an 8-4 victory Wednesday night at Progressive Field.
Atlanta 8, San Diego 1
Matt Wisler has looked like a different pitcher since he returned from a three-week exile in the minor leagues.
NY Mets 5, Miami 2
The biggest win of the season for the New York Mets was about 15 minutes old when the black cloud perpetually hanging above the team opened up yet again.
Chi. Cubs 6, Pittsburgh 5
Kris Bryant went 2-for-4 with his National League-leading 36th home run of the season as the Chicago Cubs held on to complete a three-game sweep of the Pittsburgh Pirates with a 6-5 victory on Wednesday night.
Milwaukee 3, St. Louis 1
When Matt Carpenter ripped into a 91-mph fastball with two on and nobody out in the eighth inning Monday night, you could almost hear the resignation from the Milwaukee Brewers' dugout.
LA Dodgers 10, Colorado 8
Andrew Toles was out of baseball last year.
NY Yankees 5, Kansas City 4
Brian McCann's sacrifice fly in the 13th inning scored Didi Gregorius as the New York Yankees edged by the Kansas City Royals 5-4 Wednesday night.
