Recap Roundups
June 09, 2017
Colorado 5, Chi. Cubs 3
The Colorado Rockies' bullpen came through once again, despite a nail-biting finish.
Miami 12, Pittsburgh 7
Giancarlo Stanton had a little fun during the Miami Marlins' batting practice. He took aim at the batter's eye in center field at PNC Park and tried to hit a ball over it.
Texas 5, Washington 2
Tanner Roark, from the small town of Wilmington, Ill., was a 25th-round draft pick by the Texas Rangers out of the University of Illinois in 2008.
Cleveland 7, Chi. White Sox 3
This was the Edwin Encarnacion the Cleveland Indians have been waiting to see.
Boston 5, Detroit 3
It's no secret that when the streaky Jackie Bradley Jr. is in the middle of one of his good stretches, he makes the Boston Red Sox far more dangerous.
Tampa Bay 13, Oakland 4
Over the next two months, the Tampa Bay Rays will look to Mallex Smith to replace injured center fielder Kevin Kiermaier.
NY Yankees 8, Baltimore 2
Things are going so well for Aaron Hicks that he hit a ball into the "Judge's Chambers" -- the section in right field named for the New York Yankees' other outfielder named Aaron who hits homers.
Atlanta 3, NY Mets 2
Pinch-hitter Rio Ruiz had the first game-ending hit of his career Friday night, scoring another rookie for the Atlanta Braves' third walk-off victory of the season.
LA Angels 9, Houston 4
With Cameron Maybin back from the disabled list and back atop the batting order, the Los Angeles Angels found the spark they required to provide right-hander Matt Shoemaker the cushion he needed to keep rolling.
St. Louis 3, Philadelphia 2
As Michael Wacha chased Freddy Galvis' potential game-tying hit with two outs and a runner at third in the top of the ninth inning Friday night, the St. Louis Cardinals left fielder thought about one thing.
Milwaukee 8, Arizona 6
Jonathan Villar saved the game with a huge defensive play in the eighth inning, but was understandably nowhere to be found in the Milwaukee Brewers' clubhouse at Chase Field after Friday night's 8-6 win over the host Arizona Diamondbacks.
LA Dodgers 7, Cincinnati 2
Justin Turner's return was just how he would have scripted it.
Seattle 4, Toronto 2
Tyler Cloyd waited nearly four years for this moment.
San Diego 6, Kansas City 3
Matt Szczur said he was thinking of Jhoulys Chacin in the bottom of the seventh at Petco Park on Friday night as he was preparing to pinch-hit for the San Diego Padres' starting pitcher.
Minnesota 4, San Francisco 0
Four-hit shutout or three-run double? Minnesota Twins right-hander Ervin Santana was asked to choose his favorite personal highlight Friday night.
