We have a smaller group of early MLB games to enjoy this working week after a bumper crop last week.
Wednesday is the main evening for your baseball fix at a convenient time in the UK. The Toronto-Detroit three-game series early this week should be a good one and we’ll get to see the final game on Wednesday with R.A. Dickey and Jordan Zimmermann currently in line to be the starting pitchers.
The Lone Star State series should also be well worth watching, especially thanks to Houston’s recent surge in form. The Astros and Rangers meet for a four-game series this week and Thursday’s finale is a day-game for us to enjoy.
All times are in BST.
