Texas widens their lead in the AL West with a win over the A's. 

 

The Houston Astros picked up their first win of the season-series against Detroit. Game ended on a spectacular catch in the bottom of the ninth with bases loaded. 

 

 

 

Raul Ibanez just hit a 1 out grand slam in the 1st inning at Yankee Stadium to break the game open early with a 6-0 lead. 

 

 

Later this evening Greinke returns nearly a month ahead of schedule to pitch for the Dodgers.

when you said ibanez hit a grand slam i was thinking he still played for the yankees and was a little disappointed.

Oakland looks disappointing so far. With Seattle's great pitching, a couple slick trades and a collapse from Texas they could get into the playoffs.

Oakland is just coming back to earth. They played over their heads last season, big time. Maybe 80 wins for them this year

Shows how much I'd suck at being a GM. All off season I was saying Oakland would keep it going and the Orioles were the real fluke team who would come back to earth, lol

Ibanez just homered again. 6RBI 2HR so far in one game. Mariners up 9-1.

 

Yankee Stadium sure has a way of reviving old washed up veterans. If we hadn't stacked our team with a ridiculous number of flyball pitchers the Angels probably shoudl have brought the fences in.

The game is being played in Tampa, he was bound to hit either an old dude or an empty seat, there really isn't any other outcome.
