Mike Moustakas Sitting Against Lefty On Thursday

Cincinnati Reds infielder Mike Moustakas is heading to the bench for the team's series finale against the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday. Left-hander Brett Anderson is on the mound for the Brewers, so the Reds will be going with the right-handed Eugenio Suarez at third instead of the left-handed Moustakas, who has gone just 2-for-24 against […]

Jose Iglesias Getting A Breather On Thursday

Los Angeles Angels shortstop Jose Iglesias is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Baltimore Orioles.

That's […]

New York Mets starting pitcher Taijuan Walker went 6-plus innings pitched in the Mets 3-2 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday, yielding just two hits, one walk, and two earned runs (three runs total).

Shohei Ohtani Has Rare Poor Start Wednesday

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Shohei Ohtani had an ugly outing on Wednesday, pitching five innings, allowing four runs with seven strikeouts and no walks.

Anthony Santander Collects Three More Hits Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Anthony Santander stayed hot at the plate in Wednesday's 10-6 win over the Angels. Santander went 3-for-4 with a single, a double, and a solo home run.

Andrew McCutchen Collects Two Hits In Loss To Rays

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Andrew McCutchen went 2-for-4 with a run scored in a loss to the Rays on Wednesday.
