MLB Morning Lineup Podcast

On today’s episode ... ACT 1: THE BIG STORIES (0:56-3:29) Not that long after they were 11 games below .500, the Mets suddenly find themselves one game out of the NL Wild Card race after a 14-2 rout of the Rangers for their sixth straight victory. Also, Pirates rookie Paul Skenes continued his dominance as he improved to 4-0 after striking out seven over six innings, and Tyler O'Neill homered twice as the Red Sox slugged four home runs in Toronto. ACT 2: WHIPAROUND (3:30-5:00) Elsewhere around the league, the Dodgers didn't miss a beat in their first game since losing Mookie Betts to a fractured hand. Miguel Rojas took his spot on the roster and promptly collected three hits in a 9-5 win over the Rockies. Ozzie Albies also hit a clutch home run for the Braves, and the Cardinals and Giants each won behind their own late-inning drama. ACT 3: LOOKING AHEAD (5:02-6:36) Will this be the year for the Guardians or Mariners to end their lengthy World Series droughts? They are in first place so far with commanding leads in their divisions, and they meet tonight in Cleveland.
