Recap Roundups
May 27, 2017
NY Yankees 3, Oakland 2
Pitching at Yankee Stadium for the first time in his brief career after spending two weeks in the minors, Jharel Cotton wanted to make it a special day.
Toronto 3, Texas 1
Marco Estrada said he woke up in a good mood on Saturday.
Chi. White Sox 3, Detroit 0
Five Chicago White Sox pitchers combined to hold the Detroit Tigers to four hits in a 3-0 victory in the first game of a doubleheader on Saturday.
Minnesota 5, Tampa Bay 3
Brian Dozier had faced Tampa Bay Rays reliever Tommy Hunter eight times in his career before Saturday's eighth-inning at-bat.
Philadelphia 4, Cincinnati 3
Teammates dumped a water cooler on Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Tommy Joseph after his second walk-off hit in three days. It might be the only thing that can cool down the first baseman this month.
Washington 3, San Diego 0
Stephen Strasburg entered this season with the goal of going deeper into games and limiting his pitch count, with an objective of getting quick outs on groundballs.
Boston 6, Seattle 0
Young left-hander Brian Johnson was optioned to Triple-A Pawtucket after Saturday's game.
Kansas City 5, Cleveland 2
Four batters into the game, there was one out and two ejections, one of which was the 40th of Kansas City Royals manager Ned Yost's career.
LA Angels 5, Miami 2
Your move, Stanton.
Milwaukee 6, Arizona 1
Chase Anderson went seven innings without allowing a hit and Jesus Aguilar hit his fourth home run of the season as the Milwaukee Brewers snapped a five-game losing streak with a 6-1 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks Saturday afternoon at Miller Park.
Detroit 4, Chi. White Sox 3
Buck Farmer wants to leave a good impression with the Detroit Tigers when he makes a spot start like he did Saturday night.
Houston 5, Baltimore 2
There didn't appear to be much of a window between the moment Houston Astros ace left-hander Dallas Keuchel landed on the 10-day disabled list and the time he started champing at the bit to return to the mound.
LA Dodgers 5, Chi. Cubs 0
When the 2017 season began, it did not look like Chase Utley and Chris Taylor would play much of a role with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Pittsburgh 5, NY Mets 4
The odds might have been against John Jaso, and the pressure was on with the bases loaded and two outs in the bottom of the 10th inning Saturday night.
St. Louis 3, Colorado 0
The St. Louis Cardinals have a take-it-to-the-bank certainty about the outcome when Adam Wainwright starts against the Colorado Rockies.
San Francisco 6, Atlanta 3
The San Francisco Giants had an inkling that injured Madison Bumgarner's replacement in the starting rotation could pitch effectively.
