Preview: Cardinals (42-23) at Mets (24-36)
Game: 3
Venue: Citi Field
Date: June 13, 2013 1:10 PM EDT


Although Adam Wainwright is in position to win a career best-tying fifth consecutive start, he's lost four in a row to the New York Mets.

He also figures to face stiff competition from counterpart Matt Harvey, who appears to be good to go following last week's injury scare.

Wainwright takes the mound opposite the unbeaten Harvey as the visiting St. Louis Cardinals conclude a three-game set with the Mets on Thursday, weather permitting.

Leading the majors with a 13.0 strikeout-to-walk ratio - more than twice as high as the next guy - Wainwright (9-3, 2.34 ERA) has struck out 28 and issued two free passes during a four-start winning streak since losing to the Mets last month. He turned in another superb effort Friday, giving up two runs and seven hits over seven innings during a 9-2 win at Cincinnati.

Wainwright won five consecutive starts Aug. 4-26.

"I think it's just another way of mixing things up and being the complete pitcher," Wainwright, who kept switching his mechanics, told MLB's official website. "As long as you're OK in your delivery and can mix speeds with your pitches, why not mix with your delivery? Give them a different look - one over the head, one not. I just think it's a different way to give different looks."

Wainwright could certainly afford to change things up versus New York (24-36). The right-hander has gone 1-4 over seven regular-season games - five starts - in the series while compiling a 7.29 ERA, by far his highest mark against any NL opponent. He gave up four runs in six innings during a 5-2 loss May 16.

Daniel Murphy and Omar Quintanilla are a combined 10 for 18 with four doubles and a triple against Wainwright and Lucas Duda is 2 for 5 with a homer.

After beating St. Louis (42-23) by a 5-1 score Wednesday thanks to homers from David Wright, Duda and Marlon Byrd, the Mets will try to back Harvey (5-0, 2.10) with a similar display. The emerging superstar has received an average of just 2.66 runs of support over his last nine starts, a stretch during which he's gone 1-0 with a 2.66 ERA.

Harvey scattered six hits and struck out six over seven innings of one-run ball in Saturday's 2-1, 20-inning loss to Miami. He came out to warm up in the eighth but was removed due to tightness in his lower back.

Harvey, though, received treatment immediately and is expected to be fine going forward.

"We can't risk this guy getting hurt," manager Terry Collins said. "It would be one of the worst decisions you can make to let this guy go out there, as competitive as he is, and pitch with a possible injury that could not only hurt his back even worse, but have him change his delivery where he could hurt his arm."

After checking out OK, the only thing that would prevent Harvey from pitching is the weather. With thunderstorms expected in the area, the Mets are preparing for their seventh rainout.

"It doesn't look good, I know that," Collins said. "I don't think anybody in baseball has gone through what we've gone through this year.

"We've had so many days off early, it's not like anybody's tired, but when it starts getting 90 degrees every day and it's July, it's going to take its toll to where you've really got to make sure guys are getting days off to keep their energy up, because it's going to wear them down."

Cardinals third baseman David Freese went 0 for 4 on Wednesday, ending his career-best 20-game hitting streak - the majors' longest this season.

Preview: Reds (40-26) at Cubs (25-38)
Game: 4
Venue: Wrigley Field
Date: June 13, 2013 2:20 PM EDT


The Cincinnati Reds have gotten back on track in their series against the Chicago Cubs, largely due to their performance on the mound.

The Reds appear to have a good chance to continue that outstanding pitching and their lengthy winning streak at Wrigley Field with Mat Latos taking the ball in Thursday's finale.

Mike Leake provided the latest strong outing Wednesday when he allowed one run and three hits in eight innings to lead Cincinnati to a 2-1 victory over the Cubs (25-38), who have lost eight of 10.

The Reds (40-26) are 19-3 in the last 22 meetings with Chicago, including a franchise-best 12 straight road wins - the longest streak by an opponent at Wrigley.

"We're just having fun. That's the only thing I can say," said third baseman Todd Frazier, who homered for the second straight game and gave the Reds the lead in the seventh inning. "We're relaxed when we play here. We like playing here."

Though they had a 7.63 ERA in a stretch of four losses in five games, the Reds have bounced back with a 1.33 ERA in this series.

They should be feeling confident with Latos (6-0, 2.87 ERA) on the mound as they try for the four-game sweep. The right-hander has a chance to become the first Red to be unbeaten with an ERA below 3.00 after 14 starts.

He also hasn't lost in a team-record 20 starts, going 10-0 with a 2.65 ERA while leading Cincinnati to a 17-3 record.

Latos has earned two of those victories against the Cubs, yielding three runs over 12-plus innings versus them this season. He's 4-2 with a 2.91 ERA in seven career starts against Chicago, winning both outings at Wrigley.

Nate Schierholtz (4 for 24), Alfonso Soriano (3 for 14) and Darwin Barney (0 for 9 with four strikeouts) haven't been able to figure out Latos, while David DeJesus is 4 for 10 with two doubles.

Chicago has struggled at Wrigley with a .158 batting average while losing seven of eight there. They weren't able to get anything going again Wednesday, aside from Schierholtz's homer in the second.

Starlin Castro (1 for 26), Barney (4 for 28), Anthony Rizzo (2 for 23) and DeJesus (2 for 18) have gotten off to slow starts this month at home.

"It's frustrating because it's the same game," manager Dale Sveum said. "Starting pitchers pitching into the seventh inning, quality starts. And we're not having quality at_bats on an everyday basis."

Scheduled starter Jeff Samardzija (3-7, 3.18) has received three runs of support in his last two starts, though he hasn't been sharp.

He went 0-1 with a 5.11 ERA despite 18 strikeouts in those 12 1-3 innings after going 2-1 with a 1.13 ERA over his previous three outings.

Samardzija is 1-2 with a 2.55 ERA in four career starts versus the Reds, allowing two earned runs over 12 innings while going 0-1 in two outings against them this season.

Frazier and Shin-Soo Choo have taken the right-hander deep in 2013.

Samardzija, though, has done a nice job over his career against sluggers Brandon Phillips (2 for 19), Joey Votto (3 for 17) and Jay Bruce (3 for 14).

Preview: Nationals (32-32) at Rockies (35-31)
Game: 3
Venue: Coors Field
Date: June 13, 2013 3:10 PM EDT


The Washington Nationals are about to get a boost from the expected return of two key members of their starting rotation.

Ross Detwiler will be the first to come off the disabled list and try to help the Nationals win their first road series in more than a month Thursday against the Colorado Rockies.

With Detwiler (2-4, 2.76 ERA) set to make his first start since straining a back muscle May 15 and star Stephen Strasburg expected back from a lat strain Sunday at Cleveland, Washington (32-32) has reason to feel optimistic.

"It's always tough, but in a long season like this, you kind of have to expect something to go wrong," Detwiler told the Nationals' official website. "We were fortunate enough last year, as a pitching staff, to be healthy all year, but our hitters weren't healthy all year.

"Hopefully we get everything out of the way and in the second half we can just look forward and not have to worry about injuries."

Detwiler, who allowed one run in 3 2-3 innings during a rehab appearance with Class-A Potomac on Saturday, plans to wait to give a fair assessment of his recovery.

"I'll let you know after (Thursday's) game," the left-hander said. "Still a big step (Thursday), so we'll see."

Detwiler's two starts versus the Rockies were both losses at Coors Field, posting an 8.00 ERA.

He'll try to help the Nationals build on a 5-1 victory over Colorado (35-31) on Wednesday and win a series on the road for the first time since taking two of three at Pittsburgh from May 3-5. Ross Ohlendorf threw six strong innings in his Washington debut, and Ian Desmond had three RBIs as the Nationals notched their third win in 12 road games.

Desmond is batting .358 with 11 RBIs during a career-high 14-game hitting streak. He's hit .469 with 12 RBIs in his last eight games versus Colorado, and he's 3 for 8 with a double and a home run against scheduled Rockies starter Jeff Francis (2-4, 6.30).

The left-hander will try to bounce back after he allowed four runs, six hits and three walks in four innings of a 4-2 loss to San Diego on Saturday. It was his first outing since missing almost a month with a left groin strain.

"I don't think I was rusty," said Francis, whose spot in the Rockies rotation appears anything but stable.

"I think any day you think the same way, whether it is April or September."

He is 1-2 with a 4.81 ERA in seven starts versus Washington.

Infielder Jonathan Herrera had two of the three hits Wednesday for the Rockies, who averaged 7.1 runs and 13.1 hits while winning five of the previous seven.

Colorado's Troy Tulowitzki went 0 for 4, but he still ranks third in the majors with a .347 batting average.

Teammate Michael Cuddyer is expected to play Thursday after missing five games with a ribcage strain. He's batting .395 with eight RBIs during a 10-game hitting streak.

Preview: Yankees (37-28) at Athletics (40-27)
Game: 3
Venue: O.co Coliseum
Date: June 13, 2013 3:35 PM EDT


The Oakland Athletics may have to overcome some difficult circumstances to extend streaks of 10 straight home wins and six in a row at home over the New York Yankees.

The Athletics have struggled all season in day games and could again be without two key hitters when they go for a three-game sweep Thursday.

Oakland (40-27) seeks its longest run at home since taking 12 in a row Aug. 13-Sept. 14, 2002. The Athletics last enjoyed a longer run at home versus New York (37-28) when they won 10 straight there from 1989-91.

One curious aspect of Oakland's season is its 11-14 mark in day games - the third-worst in the AL. The Athletics own the league's second-best mark overall.

Oakland won 5-2 on Wednesday without center fielder Coco Crisp and left fielder Yoenis Cespedes.

Cespedes, who leads the club with 13 homers, left early after he tweaked his left hamstring in Tuesday's 6-4 victory. It's almost certain he will sit out Thursday.

Crisp, who has homered in consecutive games, has a bruised heel. There's a better chance he could see action in the finale.

"He felt better when he got to the park and got some treatment," manager Bob Melvin said. "We won't take any chances with him but if he comes in and feels like he's close to 100 percent, there's the potential for him to play."

Oakland has not needed much offense in going a major league-best 20-5 since May 17. A's starters have gone 15-3 with an AL-best 2.54 ERA in that span including a 1.50 ERA during this streak at home.

It's up to Jarrod Parker (5-6, 4.68 ERA) to continue that trend Thursday as he looks to win a fourth straight start.

The right-hander, who has a 1.77 ERA in his last three, is 1-0 with a 1.13 ERA in two career starts against the Yankees, with Robinson Cano 0 for 6 against him.

Parker will be opposed by Hiroki Kuroda (6-5, 2.84), who is enduring his longest winless stretch with New York by going 0-3 with a 5.23 ERA in his last four outings.

Kuroda is 1-2 with a 4.12 ERA in three starts against the A's, winning last May 27 in his lone one in Oakland - also the last time New York won there.

The right-hander will be hoping that the Yankees can end their season-high five-game drought without a homer. It's the club's longest drought since also going five games from May 17-21, 2006, and it hasn't gone six in a row without a homer since June 12-17, 1996.

"It's part of the game. You have to fight your way out of it," manager Joe Girardi said. "We know the guys are capable."

Travis Hafner is in a 0-for-14 drought while Kevin Youkilis is 5 for 30 this month with no homers.

Oakland has all four homers in this series, with Brandon Moss connecting twice Wednesday. He's 5 for 40 over his last 19 games, with all of the hits leaving the ballpark.

"I'll take that," said Moss, batting .228. "It's not where I want to be, obviously. I'd much rather be getting hits also."

Preview: Red Sox (41-26) at Orioles (37-29)
Game: 1
Venue: Oriole Park at Camden Yards
Date: June 13, 2013 7:05 PM EDT


The Boston Red Sox are trying to create some separation atop the AL East.

The Baltimore Orioles would like to further tighten the crowded race.

Mike Carp will try to continue his offensive surge as the Red Sox open a four-game series with the Orioles at Camden Yards on Thursday night.

Boston (41-26) leads the division, which has Baltimore (37-29), New York and Tampa Bay within five games of first.

The Orioles are third, 3 1/2 games behind the Red Sox, who took two of three from the Rays following Wednesday's 2-1 victory.

Despite scoring five runs with 13 hits - 12 singles - over the last two games, the Red Sox are hitting .303 with 24 homers while averaging 6.3 runs during a 13-6 stretch.

Carp has been a pleasant surprise, going 12 for 25 (.480) with three homers and eight RBIs over his last seven games, increasing his season average 55 points to .330. He's 3 for 16 in six meetings with the Orioles.

Felix Doubront (4-3, 4.84 ERA) wouldn't mind some offensive help since he's been backed by two runs or fewer in six of his last seven games. He's 1-3 with a 5.21 ERA over that span.

The left-hander got two runs Saturday, but he gave up three in six innings of a 9-5 defeat to the Los Angeles Angels.

Doubront can point to the offense for his 0-2 record in three starts versus Baltimore - all coming last season. He's compiled a 2.70 ERA, while receiving five total runs of help.

The Orioles are looking to rebound from Wednesday's 9-5 defeat to the Los Angeles Angels, only their second loss in 10 home games. They've won five of six in Baltimore against Boston, but have yet to meet there this season.

Kevin Gausman (0-3, 8.84) is scheduled to get the ball against the Red Sox for the first time, and he's getting a fifth chance at his first career win.

The 22-year-old rookie, selected fourth overall out of LSU in last year's draft, has given up seven runs while failing to complete five innings in two of his last three starts. He was tagged for seven runs in 4 1-3 innings of an 8-0 loss at Tampa Bay on Saturday.

"I feel like I'm throwing good pitches, and sometimes I get the outcome that I hoped, and sometimes I don't," Gausman said. "A little frustrating, but I feel good ... mentally and physically, I feel good, and I feel like I have the stuff to be here. I just haven't produced."

Manny Machado is on the brink of matching his career-high 11-game hitting streak set from April 22-May 2. The 20-year-old third baseman hit .426 during that run compared to only .262 over the past 10 games.

He's batting .406 with nine RBIs over his last eight games with Boston, and he's 3 for 5 with a homer versus Doubront.

Chris Davis is 5 for 10 with a double and a homer off him, and he's 11 for 24 (.458) over his last eight meetings against Boston. He's also homered in five of the last six games, driving in seven runs and scoring as many.

The first baseman hit his major league-leading 21st homer Wednesday.

Preview: Giants (33-31) at Pirates (39-26)
Game: 3
Venue: PNC Park
Date: June 13, 2013 7:05 PM EDT


It's been over five years since the Pittsburgh Pirates have swept the San Francisco Giants.

It's been just over one year since Charlie Morton last pitched in the majors.

Morton takes the mound opposite Matt Cain as the Pirates host the Giants in Thursday night's finale.

After taking Tuesday's opener 8-2 behind an impressive effort from prized pitching prospect Gerrit Cole, Pittsburgh's bats led the way Wednesday in a 12-8 victory. Starling Marte, Jordy Mercer, Andrew McCutchen and Gaby Sanchez - the top four hitters in the batting order - went a combined 13 for 19 with eight runs while Neil Walker added a homer and three RBIs. Alex Presley also went deep.

"The top of the order was really special, the runs, the hits," said manager Clint Hurdle, whose club posted its most runs and hits (18) this season. "They just kept fueling us from the first inning through the eighth."

Seeking a fifth consecutive win in the series and its first sweep of San Francisco since May 6-8, 2008, the Pirates (39-26) turn to Morton. After undergoing Tommy John surgery last June 14, Morton is looking forward to getting back on the field.

"You can't escape emotion," he told MLB's official website. "I'm going to be nervous. I'm going to be excited, emotions that anyone would feel."

The right-hander, who's starting in place of the injured Wandy Rodriguez, allowed two runs and six hits over 6 1-3 innings during Saturday's rehab start with Triple-A Indianapolis.

Asked if Thursday is a spot start for Morton, Hurdle replied, "I don't know. We'll just figure out as we go. I don't need to make those decisions now for a group. I think we need to give Charlie an opportunity to go pitch and that will help us make our decision."

Morton is 1-0 with a 1.89 ERA in his last three starts against the Giants (33-31), who have dropped 10 of 13 on the road. After placing All-Star third baseman Pablo Sandoval (strained left foot) on the disabled list Tuesday, San Francisco was also without second baseman Marco Scutaro on Wednesday. Scutaro, dealing with an injury to his pinkie finger after getting hit by a pitch Tuesday, is out indefinitely.

Manager Bruce Bochy, though, should be back after serving a one-game suspension. He was ejected and later reprimanded after major league baseball said reliever George Kontos intentionally hit McCutchen with a pitch after both benches had been warned Tuesday.

The Giants will try to bounce back behind Cain (4-3, 5.09 ERA), who's gone 4-1 over his last seven starts. The right-hander has allowed one or two runs in five of those outings and a combined 13 in the other two.

"You can't get too ahead of yourself," he said.

Cain had compiled an 8.88 ERA over a four-start road stretch before giving up a run and four hits over seven-plus innings Friday in a 3-1 loss at Arizona. He left with a 1-0 lead before Jeremy Affeldt surrendered a three-run homer.

"Cain threw really well," Affeldt said. "He didn't deserve that."

Cain has been nearly untouchable over five starts against Pittsburgh since 2009, going 2-0 with a 1.46 ERA. He struck out 11 in a one-hitter during his last matchup in the series, a 5-0 victory April 13, 2012.

Cain has made things especially difficult on Clint Barmes and McCutchen, who are a combined 2 for 31 against him. Sanchez has also struggled, going 2 for 14.

Preview: Royals (30-33) at Rays (35-30)
Game: 1
Venue: Tropicana Field
Date: June 13, 2013 7:10 PM EDT


Home-field advantage has been critical over the last three seasons when the Tampa Bay Rays meet the Kansas City Royals.

That should mean the Rays have a decided edge since they are hosting this four-game series with the Royals that begins Thursday night.

Only two of the last 15 meetings have been won by the visiting team. Kansas City (30-33) has lost seven of eight at Tropicana Field while getting limited to a .199 average and 14 runs. The Royals had 17 runs and 24 hits in sweeping a two-game home set against Tampa Bay (35-30) from April 30-May 1.

Kansas City is brimming with confidence heading into the opener of a seven-game trip after taking two of three from Detroit to pull within 5 1/2 games of the first-place Tigers.

The Royals have won seven of eight overall after a dramatic 3-2, 10-inning victory Wednesday. Lorenzo Cain hit a tying, two-run homer off Jose Valverde with two outs in the ninth, and Eric Hosmer had the winning RBI single in the 10th.

"That was a great win," Hosmer said. "We're down to our last strike with the closer on the mound. That's just the character of this team. We're not going to give up until the last out is made."

Kansas City starters own a 1.90 ERA over the last eight games while the bullpen has yielded one run over its last 25 2-3 innings.

Cain has seven RBIs in his last six games, and Salvador Perez is batting .367 during an eight-game hitting streak. Cain and Perez combined to go 8 for 17 with four RBIs in the first series between these clubs.

Royals manager Ned Yost will miss this game to attend his daughter's wedding. Bench coach Chino Cadahia will manage in his place.

Tampa Bay had been surging offensively with 31 runs over a four-game stretch before being stifled in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Boston.

"They did a nice job against us because we've been scoring a lot of runs," manager Joe Maddon said.

Evan Longoria will try to homer in four consecutive games for the first time in his career after he had three solo shots as the Rays dropped two of three to the Red Sox.

Both teams will start right-handers Thursday.

Tampa Bay's Jeremy Hellickson (4-2, 5.18 ERA) hasn't lost since April 25, although that's mostly because of a 6.86 run support average that ranks among baseball's best.

Hellickson has been pitching better lately with victories in consecutive starts, including six stellar innings in Saturday's 8-0 win over Baltimore.

He's 1-0 with a 2.79 ERA in three starts against the Royals, yielding four runs over five innings in a 9-3 loss May 1. Billy Butler is 5 for 9 against him and Alex Gordon 4 for 9.

Kansas City's Ervin Santana (4-5, 2.99), meanwhile, owns a much lower run support average of 3.20. He earned his 100th victory Saturday by surrendering two runs in seven innings of a 7-2 win over Houston, also ending a personal four-game slide.

Santana's 6.84 ERA at Tropicana Field is his third-worst mark at any AL ballpark, and he's 2-5 in nine starts there.

Longoria (5 for 12 with two homers), Luke Scott (8 for 21 with two homers) and Yunel Escobar (7 for 17) have all fared well against Santana.

Preview: Blue Jays (28-36) at Rangers (38-27)
Game: 1
Venue: Rangers Ballpark in Arlington
Date: June 13, 2013 8:05 PM EDT


Though it's been almost a month since Yu Darvish won for the Texas Rangers, the star right-hander won't complain about how he has pitched of late.

Mired in the longest drought of his young career, Darvish makes his second straight start against the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday night in Arlington.

Darvish (7-2, 2.75 ERA) is 0-1 in four starts since he went 5-0 with a 3.07 ERA over six outings from April 19-May 16. However, the second-year product from Japan has a 2.28 ERA during the winless streak while striking out 32.

"It hasn't really affected me that much," said Darvish, whose previous longest stretch between wins was three starts from July 27-Aug. 6. "I think I've done my job. Wins and losses you can't really control."

His Texas teammates have totaled 10 runs while going 1-3 during that stretch.

"A couple of them, he had to battle. A couple of them, he was crisp," said manager Ron Washington about Darvish, who was given a 9.05 run support average through his first nine starts.

"More than anything, it was us not scoring runs. ... We score some runs for him, he could have a couple of more wins. He's thrown well enough to continue to win ballgames."

Darvish allowed three runs in the third inning and struck out seven while pitching the first seven of a 4-3, 18-inning loss at Toronto on Saturday. He is 2-1 with a 3.12 ERA in four starts against the Blue Jays (28-36), who have dropped three in a row and six of eight at Texas.

The Rangers (38-27), however, have lost two in a row and five of seven. They're coming off a pair of 5-2 losses to Cleveland.

With three hits in Wednesday's defeat, Texas rookie shortstop Jurickson Profar went 5 for 9 in the three-game set against the Indians after going 2 for 16 with seven strikeouts as the Rangers lost two of three at Toronto.

One of those hits came against Esmil Rogers (1-2, 3.60), who makes his third start of the season a day later than expected. Toronto's decisive finale at Chicago on Wednesday was postponed due to the threat of severe weather.

The right-hander, who made 23 appearances out of the bullpen, has a 1.23 ERA without a decision in two starts. He allowed a run and three hits in four innings while striking out six in a 6-1 win over the Rangers on Friday.

"He's part of our five-man rotation now, so we'll just keep everyone in line," manager John Gibbons told the Blue Jays' official website after the postponement.

Rogers, placed in the rotation due to injuries to Brandon Morrow, J.A. Happ and Josh Johnson, had no problem shifting his focus toward a Texas team he faced last week.

"I got already in my mind how I'm going to pitch these guys, how I'm pitching already," he said. "This team is an aggressive team, I have to have all my pitches ready."

Rogers' teammate, Jose Bautista, has three homers in two games this week and is batting .381 in the last four. His solo shot with two outs in the ninth tied the game and paved the way for a 7-5, 10-inning win over the White Sox on Tuesday.

Bautista, however, is 0 for 9 with three strikeouts versus Darvish.

Adam Lind is 3 for 5 against him and hitting .457 in his last 17 contests.

Preview: Phillies (31-35) at Twins (29-33)
Game: 3
Venue: Target Field
Date: June 13, 2013 8:10 PM EDT


The bullpen and the lineup are major culprits of the Philadelphia Phillies' longest losing streak of the season.

They hope starting Cliff Lee means they won't have to rely much on either one.

Lee will try to help the Phillies end their skid in the finale of a three-game series with the Minnesota Twins on Thursday night.

Philadelphia (31-35) has seen its relievers post a 4.56 ERA, ranking ahead of only two of baseball's worst teams record-wise - the New York Mets (4.65) and Houston (4.86).

The Phillies' bullpen has been particularly poor during the current five-game losing streak, surrendering nine runs and 18 hits in 11 innings.

The offense hasn't provided much relief, either. Philadelphia is batting .218 with 13 runs during the slide, which has matched the team's worst of the year and would equal its longest from last season with a loss Thursday.

The lineup mustered only one extra-base hit Wednesday in a 4-3 loss at Minnesota (29-33). The relievers wasted a two-run, sixth-inning lead, with the decisive run coming on a wild pitch from Justin De Fratus.

Manager Charlie Manuel was asked if it's possible the Phillies aren't as good as they might look on paper.

"I would never say something like that. If we have the right attitude, play the game right and love to play, we can win more games than you'd ever think we could," Manuel said. "You can go a long way sometimes by just wanting to play, playing right. We got some 'want to.' We're just not consistent."

Lee (7-2, 2.55 ERA) certainly is, going 5-0 with a 1.84 ERA over his last seven starts. He's pitched at least seven innings in all of those games and leads the Phillies with 95 1-3.

However, he wasted a four-run lead in Friday's 5-4 loss at Milwaukee. The left-hander gave up four runs in seven innings and tied a season high with three walks.

Lee is facing the Twins for the first time since a loss while with Texas on Aug. 26, 2010. He's 3-1 with a 2.41 ERA over his last five visits to Minnesota, winning his most recent with Cleveland on June 3, 2009.

The Twins are trying to win five in a row at home for the first time since May 28-June 9, 2012. They're hitting .321 over the last four.

Clete Thomas and Oswaldo Arcia - both recalled from Triple-A Rochester this month - kept Minnesota rolling by combining for seven hits, four runs and two RBIs on Wednesday.

Kevin Correia (5-4, 4.11) will try to complete the first sweep by either team in the all-time series, but he hasn't defeated Philadelphia since he was a rookie with San Francisco on Aug. 10, 2003.

The right-hander has since gone 0-3 with a 10.89 ERA in 10 games - three starts - versus the Phillies but hasn't faced them since 2010.

Correia is 0-1 in his last two home starts while allowing eight runs and five homers in 13 2-3 innings, compared to 4-0 with a 1.86 ERA in his first four.

He gave up three runs with seven strikeouts in 6 1-3 innings of Saturday's 4-3 win in 11 at Washington.

Ryan Howard is 3 for 11 with a homer versus Correia, but the slugging first baseman is batting .222 with no homers and five RBIs over the past 12 games.

Armadillo: Thursday's six-pack

Six college football teams that lost most '12 games to injuries/suspensions:

6) Maryland 37-- Just 6-18 in two years under Edsall.

5) Tulane 39-- Haven't been to a bowl game since 2002.

4) Ohio U 41-- Bobcats are 36-18 last four years under Solich.

3) Arkansas 44-- Have brutal 4-week stretch in games 5-8.

2) UMass 45-- Went 1-11 in first year in I-AA/MAC.

1) Colorado State 53-- Over last decade, Rams are 1-12 as road favorite.


*****

Armadillo: Thursday's List of 13: Clearing out a cluttered mind.........

13) New rule that takes getting used to: When a pitching coach goes to talk to his pitcher, if the pitcher doesn't speak English, the coach is allowed to bring an interpreter to the mound, which makes the visit longer.

12) Coming into Wednesday's baseball, there had been 960 games played in 2013, so thats 1,290 starting pitchers: of those 1,290, only 23 threw 120+ pitches in a game, as pitchers are protected by their teams.

11) Turn to college baseball, there is a kid at NC State named Carlos Rodon who has made 33 starts for the Wolfpack,. and threw 120+ pitches in 15 of the 33 games. College coaches aren't as protective as pro teams.

10) Monday-Tuesday was first time EVER the Tampa Bay Rays hit 4+ HRs in consecutive games. Ever.

9) Is the NHL the only pro league where teams announce trades while the playoffs are going on? Flyers-Islanders announced a trade; you don't see that in other sports, they wait until the season is over to announce deals.

8) Former Syracuse assistant basketball coach Bernie Fine is suing ESPN for $11M for defamation, after ESPN ran a story over and over about Fine being an accused pedophile, which was never proven to be true. Fine's career was ruined nonetheless, therefore the lawsuit, which is in federal court.

7) Louisville Cardinals are playing five non-Saturday football games this fall; tremendous national TV exposure should amp up their recruiting.

6) Toronto Blue Jays used 12 starting pitchers in their first 63 games.

5) Five road starts for Barry Zito: 0-4, 14.51.
Eight home starts for Barry Zito: 4-1, 1.93. Go figure.

4) A's 1B Brandon Moss is only 5 for his 40, but all five hits were HRs.

3) Arkansas' football schedule in a 4-week stretch from September 28 to October 19: Texas A&M/@ Florida/South Carolina/@ Alabama. Yikes.

2) Wow, its really been five years since Eldrick Woods won a major?

1) Dodgers-Arizona had major brawl Tuesday, so of course the next day MLB announces the teams will open the 2014 seasion by playing a couple games that count in Australia. Hope they take separate planes.

Thursday's streaking and slumping starting pitchers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A relatively quiet day around major league parks Thursday, but still an opportunity to look at a pair of streaking pitchers and a pair of slumping hurlers.

Streaking

Adam Wainwright, St. Louis Cardinals (9-3, 2.34 ERA)

Wainwright is one of the best starters in the National League and has won his last four starts and five of his last six. He's involved in a marquee matchup Thursday afternoon as the Cards are in New York to face the Mets. Matt Harvey gets the ball for the Mets.

Cliff Lee, Philadelphia Phillies (7-2, 2.55 ERA)

The Phillies lefty has been on fire since early May and has recorded six wins in his last eight starts. His ERA over those last eight appearances is a sparkling 1.84.


Slumping

Hiroki Kuroda, New York Yankees (6-5, 2.84 ERA)

The Yankees started the season winning seven of Kuroda's first nine starts. Since then, they've lost his last four starts. Kuroda has an ERA of 5.23 in those starts.

Ervin Santana, Kansas City Royals (4-5, 2.99 ERA)

Santana started the season in stellar fashion, but he has slowed down recently. The Royals are 1-6 in his last seven starts and they have scored four or more runs in just two of those outings.
