BST guide to this week’s early MLB games: Hamels-Wainwright leads a good crop of pitching match-ups

by Matt Smith

We’ve got twelve ‘early’ MLB games this week, the highlight of which takes place on Thursday when Cole Hamels and Adam Wainwright are scheduled to meet. 

In fact, all five games scheduled for Thursday look like being good pitching match-ups.  Add in ‘Big Game’ James Shields, Javier Vazquez, Franscisco Lirano, Zack Greinke and a Buchholz-Gonzalez encounter on Thursday and the second half of the week looks set to produce plenty of good games to follow at a convenient time in the UK.  All times are in BST.
