Preview: Phillies at Rockies
Gracenote
Sep 26, 2018

The Colorado Rockies are sprinting toward the finish line and look to record their sixth straight victory when they host the Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday for the third contest of their four-game series. Colorado's torrid run has helped it move ahead of St. Louis by one-half game for the second National League wild-card spot and pull within one-half game of the first-place Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West.

David Dahl homered and collected four RBIs as the Rockies drubbed the Phillies 10-3 on Tuesday. Charlie Blackmon went 2-for-3 to extend his career-best hitting streak to 17 games for the Rockies, who have recorded 10 runs in each of the first two games of the series and outscored their opponents 33-7 during their winning streak. The fading Phillies have lost six straight and 25 of their last 35, with the latest setback dropping them one game below .500. "I'm not willing to compromise my integrity to be a character," Philadelphia manager Gabe Kapler told reporters prior to the contest. "My job is to help the Philadelphia Phillies win baseball games. It's not to be a persona, but it doesn't mean I don't feel. Yes, I promise I get mad. I promise there are conversations that get loud. I promise I pound my fist from time to time. I'm not going to do it for show. It's not who I am."

PITCHING MATCHUP: Phillies RH Nick Pivetta (7-13, 4.58 ERA) vs. Rockies RH German Marquez (13-10, 3.91)

Pivetta has gone 0-4 with a 4.76 ERA over his last eight starts, last winning on Aug. 7. The 25-year-old settled for a no-decision in his last turn after giving up one run and four hits over five innings. Pivetta is 0-2 with a 16.43 ERA in two career outings against Colorado, including a loss on June 13 in which he surrendered six runs and eight hits over five frames.

Marquez is tied with Pedro Astacio (1999) for the second-highest single-season strikeout total in franchise history with 210 and needs just five to surpass Ubaldo Jimenez (2010). The 23-year-old has fanned 11 or more hitters in four of his last five outings, including a win over Arizona last time out in which he registered 11 strikeouts without a walk while giving up two runs and six hits over seven innings. Marquez lost to the Phillies on June 14, when he yielded six runs and seven hits over six innings, and is 1-1 with a 5.25 ERA in two career outings against them.

WALK-OFFS

1. Rockies 3B Nolan Arenado is 4-for-9 in the series, but his home-run drought has reached 11 games.

2. Philadelphia LF Aaron Altherr (toe) is done for the season after crashing into the outfield wall on Monday.

3. Colorado 2B DJ LeMahieu went 3-for-5 and scored twice on Tuesday and is 10-for-23 with seven runs scored over his last five contests.

PREDICTION: Rockies 8, Phillies 1

Preview: Dodgers at Diamondbacks
Gracenote
Sep 26, 2018

The National League West won't crown a champion until this weekend, but the Los Angeles Dodgers can improve their chances with a victory when they visit the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday for the rubber match of their three-game series. The Dodgers had their division lead over Colorado reduced to one-half game with Tuesday's 4-3 loss.

Arizona snapped its four-game losing streak on Eduardo Escobar’s walk-off homer off Kenta Maeda after Los Angeles tied the game in the top of the ninth inning on Chris Taylor’s RBI double. David Peralta drove in two runs for the Diamondbacks, who won for just the fourth time in 17 games. The Dodgers are aiming for their sixth consecutive division title but have gone 6-for-28 with runners in scoring position over their last two games and could use more production from Brian Dozier, who has recorded three hits in 42 at-bats this month. Yasmani Grandal collected three hits for the Dodgers, who are 21-9 since Aug. 24 and finish the regular season with three games at San Francisco this weekend.

TV: 9:40 p.m. ET, ESPN, SportsNet LA (Los Angeles), FS Arizona

PITCHING MATCHUP: Dodgers RH Ross Stripling (8-5, 2.84 ERA) vs. Diamondbacks RH Zack Greinke (14-11, 3.21)

Stripling lost his third straight decision on Friday, allowing two runs in 3 1/3 innings against San Diego. The 28-year-old Texan has worked 3 1/3 frames in each of his three starts since rejoining the rotation on Sept. 12. Paul Goldschmidt is 6-for-14 with a home run against Stripling, who is 1-3 with a 3.96 ERA in 17 career games (three starts) versus Arizona – including an 0-3 record and 5.19 mark in 10 contests (one start) at Chase Field.

Greinke fell to 2-6 since the beginning of August after allowing three runs over 7 1/3 innings in last Friday’s 6-2 loss to Colorado. “He was executing a great game plan and I thought he had some of the best stuff he had all year,” Arizona manager Torey Lovullo told reporters. “They just chipped away at him in the eighth inning.” The five-time All-Star owns a 6-5 record and 3.83 ERA in 14 career starts against the Dodgers but has struggled to contain Justin Turner (9-for-25, two home runs).

WALK-OFFS

1. The Dodgers plan to start LHPs Hyun-Jin Ryu and Clayton Kershaw, as well as RHP Walker Buehler, in this weekend’s series against San Francisco.

2. Arizona 1B Christian Walker (sinus) will miss the rest of the season after being hit by a pitch in the face in Monday’s contest.

3. Los Angeles is 71-27 when scoring first.

PREDICTION: Diamondbacks 5, Dodgers 2

Preview: Rangers at Angels
Gracenote
Sep 26, 2018

The Los Angeles Angels look to follow a five-game losing streak with a three-game sweep when they host the Texas Rangers on Wednesday for the finale of their series. Los Angeles was outscored 58-13 during its slide but has rebounded with back-to-back wins over Texas, including Tuesday's 4-1 triumph.

The Angels registered only five hits in the victory, but three came during a four-run rally in the sixth inning that was ignited by Shohei Ohtani's RBI single. Andrelton Simmons notched one of Los Angeles' hits as he returned to the lineup after missing one game with a knee injury while Justin Upton plated a run to increase his team-leading RBI total to 85, marking the fourth straight season - and seventh time in his career - he has reached that plateau. Joey Gallo went deep to provide the lone run for Texas, which has lost seven of its last nine contests. The 24-year-old has hit the 40-homer mark for the second consecutive campaign, joining Alex Rodriguez (three), Rafael Palmeiro and Juan Gonzalez as the only Rangers to accomplish the feat.

TV: 10:07 p.m. ET, FS Southwest (Texas), FS West (Los Angeles)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Rangers LH Yohander Mendez (2-2, 6.04 ERA) vs. Angels LH Andrew Heaney (9-10, 4.21)

Mendez's fourth start of the season - and his career - was a rough one as he was battered for eight runs (seven earned) and nine hits over 3 2/3 innings in a loss to Tampa Bay last Wednesday. The 23-year-old Venezuelan has performed well on the road thus far, going 1-0 while allowing two runs and five hits over 9 2/3 frames but has issued six walks in one start and two relief appearances. Mendez has come out of the bullpen to face the Angels twice in his career and has suffered one loss while giving up one run and one walk without allowing a hit in one inning.

Heaney hopes to rebound from a setback at Houston on Friday in which he was tagged for six runs on five hits and three walks over three innings. The 27-year-old native of Oklahoma has made only two of his last eight starts at home, where he is 7-3 with a 3.28 ERA as opposed to 2-7 with a 5.06 mark on the road. Heaney is 1-3 with a 7.50 ERA in six career turns against Texas after suffering one loss while surrendering 10 runs and 17 hits over 11 1/3 innings in two outings this season.

WALK-OFFS

1. Angels CF Mike Trout drew a pair of walks for the second consecutive game on Tuesday, extending his club record to 119 free passes.

2. Gallo also increased his dubious team record on Tuesday by striking out for the 200th time this season.

3. Los Angeles announced OF-RHP Ohtani (elbow) will undergo Tommy John surgery during the first week of the offseason, but he hopes to perform as a hitter in 2019.

PREDICTION: Angels 6, Rangers 4

Preview: Athletics at Mariners
Gracenote
Sep 26, 2018

The Oakland Athletics' hopes of winning the American League West have vanished, but they will need a strong finish - and some help - to catch the New York Yankees for the league's top wild-card spot. The Athletics sit 2 1/2 games behind the Yankees with four remaining, including the finale of their three-game series against the host Seattle Mariners on Wednesday.

Oakland lost a game when leading after the seventh inning for the first time in 69 attempts this season when it fell 10-8 in 11 innings on Tuesday. The setback allowed Houston to clinch the AL West and left the Athletics facing the prospect of a long flight to New York for the wild-card game after finishing the regular season in Southern California against the Los Angeles Angels. The Mariners scored two runs in the eighth and one in the ninth to force extra innings before Chris Herrmann hit a pinch-hit, two-run homer in the 11th to win the game. Seattle's Felix Hernandez returns from a hamstring injury to start for the first time since Sept. 8.

TV: 10:10 p.m. ET, NBCS California (Oakland), ROOT Northwest (Seattle)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Athletics RH Edwin Jackson (6-3, 3.18 ERA) vs. Mariners RH Felix Hernandez (8-13, 5.46)

Jackson has won two straight decisions and five of his last six as he routinely keeps the Athletics in games. Oakland has prevailed in 10 of the 35-year-old's last 11 outings and is 13-3 with him on the mound since he joined the club in late June. Jackson defeated the Mariners on Sept. 2, when he allowed one run and three hits over six innings, and is 5-0 with a 1.30 ERA in five career starts against them.

Hernandez is 0-7 over his last 10 starts as he continues to suffer through a subpar campaign. The 32-year-old has given up five or more runs on seven occasions this season, and a loss against Oakland would match the career-worst total he suffered in both 2006 and 2011. Hernandez is 1-4 with a 4.66 ERA in five appearances (four starts) against the Athletics this season and has a stellar 26-13 record and 2.78 ERA in 51 career contests (50 starts) versus the club.

WALK-OFFS

1. Athletics RHP Blake Treinen allowed an unearned run in the ninth inning on Tuesday for his first blown save since July 21.

2. Mariners DH Nelson Cruz hit a three-run homer on Tuesday - his 37th of the campaign - and is five RBIs shy of reaching 100 for the fourth time in his career.

3. Oakland 2B Jed Lowrie went 2-for-4 with his 96th RBI on Tuesday as he continues the pursuit for his first career 100-RBI season.

PREDICTION: Athletics 7, Mariners 5

Preview: Padres at Giants
Gracenote
Sep 26, 2018

The San Francisco Giants snapped their five-game skid last time out and look to claim the series when they host the San Diego Padres on Wednesday for the finale of their three-game series. San Francisco is just 5-17 this month but posted a 5-4, 12-inning win on Tuesday as pitcher Madison Bumgarner stroked the game-winning single as a pinch-hitter.

Hunter Pence notched two hits and scored three times on Tuesday and is a solid 9-for-23 with two homers and four multi-hit performances over his last six contests. Evan Longoria delivered a run-scoring double, giving him just 19 RBIs in 202 home at-bats this season. Freddy Galvis notched four hits and Franmil Reyes added three in Tuesday's loss, but the rest of the lineup produced just five. Eric Hosmer recorded a two-run single, but his RBI count sits at 67 - well below the 97 he averaged over his final three seasons with Kansas City.

TV: 10:15 p.m. ET, FS San Diego, NBCS Bay Area (San Francisco)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Padres RH Luis Perdomo (1-6, 7.56 ERA) vs. Giants RH Casey Kelly (0-2, 2.89)

San Diego manager Andy Green said the contest will be a bullpen game, and Perdomo will be the first to take the mound. The 25-year-old is slated to pitch about three innings as he makes his 10th start of the season. Perdomo is 2-0 with a 3.80 ERA in nine career appearances (seven starts) against the Giants.

Kelly will be making his seventh appearance and third start for San Francisco. The 28-year-old is starting for the first time since Aug. 22, when he yielded four runs - two earned - and seven hits over six innings in a loss to the New York Mets. Kelly, who made eight of his previous 11 starts for the Padres, has worked 3 1/3 scoreless frames in two relief appearances against his former team.

WALK-OFFS

1. The Giants are 11-7 against the Padres entering the final meeting of the season.

2. San Diego C Austin Hedges was hitless in six at-bats on Tuesday and is 1-for-15 with seven strikeouts over his last five contests.

3. San Francisco OF Gregor Blanco recorded a two-run double on Tuesday but is just 9-for-54 in September.

PREDICTION: Giants 4, Padres 2

Red Rover, No Over

The Cincinnati Reds have been a total bettors' dream lately, hitting the 'under' in each of their past 11 games overall, while posting a 12-0-1 across the past 13 outings. Overall, the total is 76-76-6 this season for Cincinnati, but their offense has really gone downhill lately, and the pitching has picked up down the stretch. Since a 10-run explosion on Sept. 10 against the Dodgers, the last 'over' for Cincinnati, the Reds have scored a goal of just 20 runs across the past 13, averaging just 1.6 runs per outing. Cincinnati has been shut out five separate times during the ugly stretch, too.

The Reds will continue their interleague series on Wednesday against the equally awful Royals. The under is 7-2 in the past nine interleague road games for Kansas City, while going 19-7 across the past 26 against National League opponents. The Royals are also 5-2 in the past seven overall, and 5-2 over the past seven outings on the road. They're also 9-4-2 in the past 15 games against left-handed starting pitchers, while hitting at a 33-16-5 clip across the past 54 vs. the National League Central Division.

For Cincinnati, they're also 15-5-1 in the past 21 games overall, while going 8-0 in the past eight following a loss in their previous outing. While the over is 4-0-1 in their past five at Great American Ball Park, the under is 4-0-1 in their past five vs. RHP. The under stretch will be put to the test, as the over is 8-3 in the past 11 vs. AL Central foes, while going 8-3 in their past 11 interleague battles. In addition, tht over is 12-4-1 across the past 17 with LHP Cody Reed on the hill. The 'under' is also 5-0 in the past five meetings between these two cellar-dwelling combatants.

Looking Ahead

Wednesday, Sept. 26

The Orioles will battle the Red Sox in a doubleheader on Wednesday. The O's will try to sack LHP Chris Sale in the second game of the twin bill at Fenway Park. The 'over' is 3-1-1 in the past five second games of a doubleheader for the O's, while going 4-0 in their past four road outings against a left-handed starter. The over is also 8-3-1 in the past 12 games inside the division while going 5-1-1 in their past seven road contests. However, the under is 4-0-2 across the past six home outings for Sales, while going 4-1-1 in his past six against AL East contests. The under is also a very odd 4-0-3 in the past seven games at Fenway for the Red Sox heading into the double dip.

Brewers RHP Jhoulys Chacin and Cardinals RHP John Gant will square off against each others at Busch Stadium II. The over is 5-2 in Milwaukee's past seven road outings vs. RHP, but the under is 9-4 in the past 13 for the Brewers overall. The under is also 9-4 in the past 13 inside the division while going 4-1 in Chacin's past five assignments away from Cream City. For St. Louis, the over has connected in seven in a row, while going 4-0 in the past four at home. The over is also 4-0 in the past four vs. RHP while going 4-0 in their past four games against a team with a winning record. However, the under is 5-2-1 in the past eight against NL Central foes while going 6-2-1 in his past nine while working on four days of rest.

It's a southpaw-on-southpaw fight when the Rangers and Angels square off at the Big A. It's been all over, all the time for both sides. The over is 4-1 in the past five for the Rangers while going 4-0 in the past four starts by Yohander Mendez. For the Halos, the over is 6-0-1 in the past seven overall while going 6-0-1 in their past seven contests inside the AL West. The over is also 4-1 in Andrew Heaney's past five at home. However, the under is 16-5 in L.A.'s past 21 home games vs. LHP, while going 22-8-1 in the past 31 overall against a left-hander. The under is also 8-1 in the past nine meetings in this series in Anaheim, while going 6-2 in the past eight overall.
