MLB:
SATURDAY:
Marlins (38-36)
1:20 PM FOX
Mets (38-38)
In what could very well be the toughest division in baseball the third place Marlins head into Shea to play the best last place team in baseball, the Mets. Pedro Martinez (8-2, 2.72, 115k) looks like the Pedro of old and Dontrelle Willis (12-2, 1.76) is absolutely on fire!
D’Backs (39-39)
4:05 PM FOX
Dodgers (36-41)
The Diamondbacks were given virtually no chance of winning the West this year and pitcher Brandon Webb (8-3, 3.20 pitching in the desert!) currently has them in second place. The Dodgers are rebuilding this season but still trail by only five games and have the big bats of Jeff Kent (15HR, 58RBI, .297) and Milton Bradley (10HR, 26RBI, .298).
SUNDAY:
Nationals (45-31)
2:20 PM WGN
Cubs (39-36)
The surprising ‘Nats’ just keep on rolling, led by Jose Guillen (15HR, 41RBI, .301) and Livan Hernandez (11-2, 3.32) they will take that lead into historic Wrigley Field to face Derek Lee (22HR, 66RBI, .388) and Mark Prior (5-1, 2.66) of the Cubbies.
Braves (43-34)
8:05 PM ESPN
Phillies (39-38)
