Seattle Mariners vs. Oakland Athletics Preview and Predictions 05-23-2018
23rd May 2018 by Gracenote
the seattle mariners look to extend their winning streak to five games when they visit the oakland athletics on wednesday for the middle contest of their three-game series. after sweeping a three-game set against detroit, seattle rallied from a two-run deficit in the opener versus oakland to post a 3-2 victory in 10 innings.
mike zunino belted a two-run homer in the seventh inning to knot the contest before guillermo heredia delivered an rbi double in the 10th as the mariners matched their longest winning streak of the season, which was ended by oakland on april 15. the win came at a cost, however, as mitch haniger exited the game after being hit on the left wrist by a pitch in the fourth inning and is day-to-day. marcus semien recorded two hits and an rbi for the athletics, who had their four-game winning streak halted as they kicked off a 10-game homestand following a 7-3 road trip. semien has registered three straight two-hit performances and eight in his last 13 contests.

pitching matchup: mariners lh marco gonzales (3-3, 4.66 era) vs. athletics rh daniel gossett (0-1, 11.05)
gonzales settled for a no-decision against detroit on thursday after allowing an unearned run and five hits over 5 2/3 innings. the 26-year-old native of colorado has demonstrated good control this season, issuing only nine walks over 46 1/3 frames while registering 43 strikeouts. gonzales made his second career appearance - and first start - against oakland on april 14, when he yielded four runs and five hits over 3 1/3 innings in a no-decision.
gossett is expected to be recalled from triple-a nashville to make his third start this season after yielding nine runs and 11 hits over 7 1/3 innings in his first two outings - both against the los angeles angels. the 25-year-old from south carolina has enjoyed success with the sounds, however, going 4-0 with a 1.63 era and 42 strikeouts over 38 2/3 frames in five starts and two relief appearances. gossett lost all three starts against seattle as a rookie last year, surrendering 13 runs on 18 hits and nine walks over 12 1/3 innings.

1. athletics dh khris davis missed the series opener after suffering a right groin strain in sunday's win at toronto but hopes to avoid a trip to the disabled list.

3. oakland may recall rhp kendall graveman from nashville to start the series finale on thursday.

Colorado Rockies vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Preview and Predictions 05-23-2018
23rd May 2018 by Gracenote
the los angeles dodgers are on the upswing with five victories in six games, and they look to win the three-game series when they host the colorado rockies in the rubber match on wednesday. los angeles recorded a 5-3 victory on tuesday and looks to further reduce its deficit in the national league west behind the first-place rockies.
chris taylor hit a two-run homer and yasiel puig followed with a solo blast during the decisive sixth-inning uprising on tuesday as the fourth-place dodgers climbed within 4 1/2 games of colorado. the suddenly hot puig has gone deep five times in his last eight games after not homering in his first 28 contests. the rockies have registered only 10 hits over the first two games of the series and are anticipating that nolan arenado soon will arise from a 15-game home-run drought. arenado, who recorded a run-scoring single on tuesday, has collected just five rbis during the power slump.

pitching matchup: rockies lh kyle freeland (4-4, 3.17 era) vs. dodgers rh kenta maeda (3-3, 3.89)
freeland has given up just three runs and 13 hits over 20 innings while winning three consecutive decisions. the 24-year-old defeated san francisco in his last turn as he allowed one run and five hits over 6 2/3 frames. freeland went 1-2 with a 4.26 era in four starts against the dodgers as a rookie last season.
maeda received an extra day of rest after a stellar effort in his last turn, when he gave up two hits over eight scoreless innings against miami on thursday. the 30-year-old hadn't worked more than six frames in any of his first seven starts and lasted five or fewer in four of them. maeda is 4-2 with a 2.56 era in seven career appearances (five starts) versus the rockies and has limited arenado (2-for-14) while struggling with charlie blackmon (4-for-11, homer).
walk-offs
1. dodgers 3b justin turner, who is just 1-for-13 over his last three games, is 6-for-11 with three doubles against freeland.
2. colorado 2b dj lemahieu (left thumb) played catch from 50 feet on tuesday and caught balls with a glove but still isn't ready to swing a bat.
3. los angeles lf matt kemp has recorded three straight two-hit performances and is 10-for-20 with five doubles over his last six contests.
