Recap Roundups
September 27, 2017
Houston 12, Texas 2
After thoroughly dominating the Texas Rangers in every aspect for three games, Houston Astros manager A.J. Hinch was understandably impressed with his club.
Colorado 15, Miami 9
Trevor Story made the Miami Marlins pay dearly on Wednesday.
Oakland 6, Seattle 5
The Oakland Athletics had lost a franchise-record eight straight times to the Seattle Mariners going into the finale of a three-game series on Wednesday at the Oakland Coliseum.
Arizona 4, San Francisco 3
J.D. Martinez tied another home run record with his 16th September homer on Wednesday. Just do not ask him if his remarkable production is surprising.
Pittsburgh 5, Baltimore 3
Playing in his final home game of 2017, Pittsburgh first baseman Josh Bell put an exclamation point on a strong rookie season.
NY Yankees 6, Tampa Bay 1
Starlin Castro saw nine pitches from Matt Andriese, fouled off three and then blasted the 10th pitch well over the left-center field fence.
Philadelphia 7, Washington 5
As the 2017 wore on, the Philadelphia Phillies continued to see signs of positivity heading toward the future.
Chi. Cubs 5, St. Louis 1
On a late September night in 2013, the St. Louis Cardinals clinched a National League Central title by beating the Chicago Cubs.
NY Mets 7, Atlanta 1
The longest-tenured manager in New York Mets history and the second-most decorated everyday player to suit up for the franchise hope Wednesday night wasn't the final time they'll wear the home uniform at Citi Field. But if it was, at least Terry Collins and Jose Reyes went out winners.
Cleveland 4, Minnesota 2
One year after losing 103 games, the Minnesota Twins are headed to the playoffs.
Boston 10, Toronto 7
Rick Porcello wasn't great Wednesday night, but he pitched well enough to put the Boston Red Sox on the doorstep of their second consecutive American League East title.
Cincinnati 6, Milwaukee 0
If the Milwaukee Brewers finish on the outside looking in at the 2017 postseason, there's a good chance they'll have a picture of Homer Bailey on their dartboards over the winter.
Chi. White Sox 6, LA Angels 4
Nicky Delmonico had three hits, including a walk-off, two-run homer in the bottom of the 10th inning, as the Chicago White Sox beat the Los Angeles Angels 6-4 on Wednesday night.
Kansas City 7, Detroit 4
One night does not make up for a lost season for Paulo Orlando, but it does help erase some bad memories.
LA Dodgers 10, San Diego 0
On a Los Angeles Dodgers team loaded with veteran stars and the presumptive National League Rookie of the Year, no one is playing better than a well-traveled 13-year veteran left-hander and a hybrid catcher/second baseman who began the season with three career RBIs.
