MLB:
SATURDAY:
Padres (33-19)
4:05 PM FOX
Giants (23-27)
The first place Padres are lead by pitchers Jake Peavy (5-0, 2.00) and Adam Eaton (7-1, 3.58). They currently hold an eight game lead over the fourth place Giants who have struggled without Barry Bonds in the lineup and start pitcher Jason Schmidt looking merely human (3-1, 5.08).
White Sox (35-17)
4:05 PM FOX
Rangers (30-20)
Two first place team square off in what should be a great series. The White Sox hot start and their five deep pitching staff have been getting most of the headlines, but the Rangers have quietly crept into first place behind ?The Gambler? Kenny Rogers? (6-2, 1.69) strong start.
SUNDAY:
Red Sox (28-23)
8:05 PM ESPN
Yankees (27-24)
Give the rest of the majors the season off and let these two play each other every week because this is as good as it gets. The Red Sox took two out of three at Yankee Stadium last weekend including a 17-1 pounding last Saturday. Will it be payback time?
