Sunday’s early MLB games

It’s a full house of early games today as all fifteen contests will take place under daylight.  ESPN will be showing the Red Sox-Yankees game rather than broadcasting in the usual Sunday Night slot.  All times are in BST.

18.05. Orioles @ Indians – Tillman (2-4), Huff (10-8)
18.05. Red Sox @ Yankees – Byrd (1-2), Pettitte (13-7)
18.07. Mariners @ Blue Jays – Rowland-Smith (4-3), Tallet (7-9)
18.10. Mets @ Marlins – Misch (1-4), Johnson (15-5)
18.35. Braves @ Nationals – Lowe (15-9), Hernandez (8-12)
18.35. Dodgers @ Pirates – Kershaw (8-8), McCutchen (0-2)
19.05. Reds @ Astros – Cueto (10-10), Rodriguez (13-11)
19.05. Tigers @ White Sox – Jackson (13-7), Hudson (0-1)
19.05. Phillies @ Brewers – Blanton (11-7), Bush (5-8)
19.10. Twins @ Royals – Liriano (5-12), Greinke (15-8)
20.05. Rays @ Rangers – Price (9-7), McCarthy (7-4)
20.10. Cardinals @ Rockies – Lohse (6-8), De La Rosa (15-9)
20.35. A’s @ Angels – Gonzalez (0-3), Saunders (14-7)
21.05. Cubs @ Giants – Wells (11-9), Cain (13-7)
21.10. Padres @ D-Backs – Mujica (3-4), Buckner (2-6)

Plenty to look forward to there, including a big game for the Braves who have now pulled to within 2.5 games of the Rockies in the NL Wild Card race thanks to their five-game winning streak.  The Giants and Marlins may both feel that they still have an outside chance of sneaking into the playoffs as well.  In the American League, the only race really left open is in the Central division.  Detroit look to have the better of the match-ups today.  They have Edwin Jackson on the mound against Ben Hudson, making just his second Major League start.  In contrast, Minnesota have to face Zack Greinke.

All the above games can be followed via various resources on MLB.com (Gameday, Gameday Audio and MLB.tv).  ESPN America will broadcast the Red Sox-Yankees game at 18.00 and then an ‘as live’ showing of the Cardinals-Rockies game at 22.00.
