Recap Roundups
April 19, 2017
St. Louis 2, Pittsburgh 1
Matt Carpenter gave the Pittsburgh Pirates life in the eighth inning on Wednesday when he dropped a throw from pitcher Kevin Siegrist that allowed Francisco Cervelli to reach on what should have been an easy putout.
Chi. Cubs 7, Milwaukee 4
Addison Russell had a destination in mind as he awaited Milwaukee Brewers reliever Neftali Feliz's third and final pitch on Wednesday.
Oakland 9, Texas 1
Jesse Hahn delivered a premium start on Wednesday, but he knew who deserved the credit after the Oakland Athletics' 9-1 blowout of the Texas Rangers.
Seattle 10, Miami 5
In a battle of Opening Day starters between the Miami Marlins and Seattle Mariners, it was the offenses who took top billing, in a 10-5 Seattle victory on Wednesday at Safeco Field.
NY Yankees 9, Chi. White Sox 1
When Yankee Stadium is empty, Aaron Judge is making jaws drop by hitting mammoth home runs off advertisements and over sports bars in batting practice.
Toronto 3, Boston 0
The Toronto Blue Jays are showing signs of slowly recovering from their worst start in the franchise's 40-year history.
Baltimore 2, Cincinnati 0
Ubaldo Jimenez pitched 7 2/3 innings and Jonathan Schoop's RBI single and a sacrifice fly by Manny Machado provided all the offense, lifting the Baltimore Orioles to a 2-0 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday night at Great American Ball Park.
Tampa Bay 8, Detroit 7
On a night where defensive miscues hurt both teams, the Detroit Tigers made the last mistake with a two-out throwing error in the bottom of the ninth, giving the Tampa Bay Rays a wild 8-7 victory Wednesday night at Tropicana Field.
NY Mets 5, Philadelphia 4
They're saying "Bruuuuce" now at Citi Field, not "booooo."
Washington 14, Atlanta 4
Washington slugger Bryce Harper owns Atlanta pitcher Julio Teheran and the same could be said about the Nationals against the Braves.
Houston 5, LA Angels 1
Josh Reddick finished a single shy of the cycle and scored three runs, Dallas Keuchel allowed one run in seven strong innings and the Houston Astros defeated the Los Angeles Angels 5-1 on Wednesday at Minute Maid Park.
Kansas City 2, San Francisco 0
Madison Bumgarner has been one of the best left-handed pitchers in the game for several years.
LA Dodgers 4, Colorado 2
Clayton Kershaw felt disrespected by the Colorado Rockies before he threw a pitch. However, after a shaky first inning, Kershaw found his rhythm and delivered a small act of revenge against the Rockies.
San Diego 1, Arizona 0
To say Erick Aybar was in a slump as he approached the plate in the eighth inning of a scoreless tie at Petco Park Wednesday night is an understatement.
