Recap Roundups
April 30, 2017
Baltimore 7, NY Yankees 4
With a runner on second base in the ninth inning, Darren O'Day lifted his left leg, turned around and attempted to get a game-ending pickoff.
Toronto 3, Tampa Bay 1
What began as the return of Aaron Sanchez turned out to be a day of redemption for the Toronto Blue Jays' bullpen in a 3-1 win over the Tampa Bay Rays.
Miami 10, Pittsburgh 3
Marlins first baseman Justin Bour entered Miami's Sunday game in a miserable slump, batting just .184.
Cleveland 12, Seattle 4
Eight-run innings are a manager's best friend, and Terry Francona enjoyed the Cleveland Indians' third inning on Sunday at Progressive Field.
Detroit 7, Chi. White Sox 3
Jordan Zimmermann hopes he has fixed some bad habits that crept in while he was hurt most of last season.
Washington 23, NY Mets 5
Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo met the media Sunday morning to talk about the knee injury to Adam Eaton that could sideline the Washington center fielder for the rest of the season.
Houston 7, Oakland 2
Left-hander Dallas Keuchel often sets the tone for the Houston rotation and the team, so when he scuffled last April, so too did the Astros. The opening month of this season was significantly better for both parties.
Milwaukee 4, Atlanta 3
For the first month of the season, the Milwaukee Brewers got big contributions from the core players in the middle of the order to lead the major leagues in home runs. As more players' bats come alive, they may become even more dangerous.
Minnesota 7, Kansas City 5
Miguel Sano struck out in his first at-bat Sunday. In his next three at-bats, he drove in five runs.
Cincinnati 5, St. Louis 4
Facing a bases-loaded situation in the eighth inning of a tie game, managers would not prefer many hitters other than Joey Votto to be at the plate.
LA Angels 5, Texas 2
Jefry Marte drove in three runs with a home run and a single to lead a 10-hit attack as the Los Angeles Angels beat the Texas Rangers 5-2 on Sunday to take the rubber match of a three-game series.
San Diego 5, San Francisco 2
Wil Myers didn't look to be a likely hero after going 0-for-5. But that sixth at-bat in the 12th inning changed everything.
Arizona 2, Colorado 0
Over and over, two of the major league's best offensive teams flailed away at each other's pitches only to come up empty Sunday afternoon.
LA Dodgers 5, Philadelphia 3
It is a bit generic to note that Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Hyun-Jin Ryu won his first game since 2014, 5-3 over the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday.
Boston 6, Chi. Cubs 2
A burst of speed helped the Boston Red Sox earn a series win over the defending World Series champions.
