Recap Roundups
May 01, 2017
Toronto 7, NY Yankees 1
The Toronto Blue Jays experienced major disappointment in the first month of the season because of injuries and subpar hitting.
Baltimore 5, Boston 2
Take away one botched fly ball in short left field, and the Baltimore Orioles played a perfect baseball game on a chilly night at Fenway Park on Monday.
Cincinnati 4, Pittsburgh 3
Cincinnati Reds manager Bryan Price said it is important to see how his young players, in particular the pitchers, handle adversity. Last week's four-game losing streak included a start from rookie Amir Garrett in which he allowed nine earned runs in 3 1/3 innings. Since then, both the Reds and Garrett have bounced back.
Tampa Bay 4, Miami 2
The slide was legal and that -- ultimately -- meant victory for the Tampa Bay Rays.
Detroit 7, Cleveland 1
The Detroit Tigers know things are going their way when Victor Martinez can lay down a bunt and beat it out for a single.
Detroit 7, Cleveland 1
Daniel Norris allowed one run in six innings, Tyler Collins hit a three-run home run, and Alex Avila added a two-run single Monday night to lead the Detroit Tigers to a 7-1 victory over the Cleveland Indians.
NY Mets 7, Atlanta 5
New York Mets manager Terry Collins would prefer to stick Michael Conforto's bat in the middle of the lineup. But the way the left fielder is performing in the leadoff role, don't expect Conforto to move any time soon.
Philadelphia 10, Chi. Cubs 2
Pete Mackanin said he was concerned that his team might be flat coming into Chicago on Monday after three consecutive losses last weekend to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Houston 6, Texas 2
Given how thoroughly the Texas Rangers dominated their Lone Star State rivals recently, it seemed inevitable that emotions would boil over and spill out of the dugouts on Monday night. All it took to light the fuse was one tweet and one errant pitch.
Kansas City 6, Chi. White Sox 1
Jason Vargas knows the Kansas City Royals are a much better team than they showed lately.
Milwaukee 7, St. Louis 5
Five innings after Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Zach Davies departed Monday night's game, he called Travis Shaw's shot against St. Louis Cardinals closer Seung Hwan Oh.
San Francisco 4, LA Dodgers 3
Stunning Clayton Kershaw in the first inning made all the difference, San Francisco Giants manager Bruce Bochy said.
