Recap Roundups
July 01, 2017
Boston 7, Toronto 1
Chris Sale has been dominant everywhere he pitches.
Detroit 7, Cleveland 4
Nicholas Castellanos had three hits, including a go-ahead triple in the seventh, and the Detroit Tigers downed the Cleveland Indians 7-4 in the first game of a day-night doubleheader on Saturday at Comerica Park.
Texas 10, Chi. White Sox 4
Texas Rangers left-hander Cole Hamels smiled when he was asked how he bounced back from a rocky first inning to retire the final 19 batters he faced Saturday afternoon.
Kansas City 11, Minnesota 6
Mike Moustakas, Alex Gordon, Brandon Moss and Alcides Escobar homered as the Kansas City Royals topped the Minnesota Twins 11-6 on Saturday in the first game of a day-night doubleheader.
Atlanta 4, Oakland 3
After a rough start to his season, Atlanta Braves rookie shortstop Dansby Swanson got hot in June, and he didn't cool off when the calendar flipped on Saturday.
San Francisco 2, Pittsburgh 1
Considering the difficult time the San Francisco Giants and Pittsburgh Pirates had in scoring runs, perhaps it was fitting that the winning play wasn't a towering home run.
Tampa Bay 10, Baltimore 3
Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash would love to see Logan Morrison play in this year’s All-Star Game.
Cincinnati 5, Chi. Cubs 3
Even if his major league debut on Saturday afternoon is the only start right-hander Jackson Stephens makes before heading back to the minor leagues, the 23-year-old left quite an impression.
NY Mets 7, Philadelphia 6
Asdrubal Cabrera requested a trade from the New York Mets eight days ago. The Philadelphia Phillies might want to acquire him just so he stops using them as a one-man bobblehead doll cottage industry.
Milwaukee 8, Miami 4
Tom Koehler returned to the major leagues after six weeks of trying to get back on track in Triple-A, but his first start back with the Miami Marlins didn't go much better than his last.
Houston 7, NY Yankees 6
An unusual set of administrative events set the table for Astros right-hander Dayan Diaz to have the most memorable game of his young career, a contest capped by a riveting confrontation between two former Cuban stars.
St. Louis 2, Washington 1
Adrian Sanchez was batting in the majors for the first time. Matt Bowman was trying to secure his first big league save.
Cleveland 4, Detroit 1
The Cleveland Indians needed a jolt. A pitch thrown behind Carlos Santana did the trick.
Minnesota 10, Kansas City 5
The Kansas City Royals could not keep Miguel Sano in the park or Eddie Rosario off the bases in the second game of a doubleheader on Saturday night.
LA Angels 4, Seattle 0
Ricky Nolasco was as generous in the Los Angeles Angels' clubhouse on Saturday night as he was stingy on the mound.
Arizona 6, Colorado 2
You might say Zack Greinke aced his manager's test.
LA Dodgers 8, San Diego 0
The San Diego Padres were the perfect opponent for Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Rich Hill on Saturday night.
