Meeting up on the diamond . . .
The American League schedule for Saturday has Baltimore at Toronto, Texas at Oakland, Boston at the Yankees, Minnesota at Detroit, Kansas City at Cleveland, the White Sox at the Angels, and Seattle at Tampa Bay. Doug Fister (6-12, 3.83 ERA) is expected to get the ball for the Mariners in that last contest, while Matt Garza (14-9, 4.01 ERA) is slated to pitch for the Rays. Righthander Fister dazzled the Rangers in his most recent trip to the mound, surrendering just one run on nine hits over his seven innings of work in a win. Righthander Garza will be looking to bounce back from a loss to the Yankees in which he gave up seven runs (five earned) in his five innings pitched.
Over in the National League on Saturday it’s then St. Louis at the Cubs, Atlanta at Washington, Cincinnati at San Diego, Houston at Pittsburgh, the Mets at Philadelphia, Florida at Milwaukee, the Dodgers at Arizona, and San Francisco at Colorado. Barry Zito (9-13, 3.98 ERA) takes the hill for the Giants on Saturday, while the Rockies are expected to counter with Jason Hammel (10-8, 4.56 ERA). Lefthander Zito snapped a seven-game losing streak in his most recent start, holding the Brewers to two runs on three hits over his six innings pitched. Righthander Hammel last pitched against the Dodgers on September 19, allowing four runs on six hits over four innings in that game.
