MLB:

SATURDAY:
  NATIONALS (55-45)  
    1:20 PM FOX 
 MARLINS (49-47)   

The ‘Nats’, losers of 7 of the last 10 as well as first place in the super strong NL East will try to turn it around when Livan Hernandez (12-4, 3.32) and Jose Guillen (19HR, 55RBI, .301) lead them into the ‘Sunshine State’ to face the Marlins. The ‘Fightin fish’ may be in last place but they are still above .500 and have some great players themselves in Dontrelle Willis (13-6, 3.23) and Miguel Cabrera (23HR, 74RBI, .349)

  ANGELS (59-40)   
    1:20 PM FOX 
 YANKEES (52-45)   

The first place Angels led by Vladimir Guerrero (18HR, 62RBI, .302) are fighting to stay ahead of the red hot Oakland A’s in the fight for the AL West. The Yankees, after a slow start are one game behind first place Boston and every game counts from here on out!

SUNDAY:
  D’BACKS (48-53)   
    2:20 PM WGN 
 CUBS (51-48)    

The D’Backs, while having a losing record are amazingly only three games behind first place San Diego in the NL West. With sluggers like Troy Glaus (20HR, 61RBI) and Tony Clark (16HR, 52RBI, .328) in the lineup three game sis nothing. It’s no secret that the ‘Cubbies’ slugger Derek Lee (32HR, 81RBI, .366) is having a career year but Aramis Ramirez (27HR, 73RBI, .313) is quietly destroying the competition as well.

  W/SOX (65-33)   
    8:05 PM ESPN 
 ORIOLES (50-48)   

It’s put up or shut up time for the Orioles. After leading the AL East for most of the season they have started to fade. Will they revitalize themselves by sending the AL best White Sox packing or take a beating and fade into oblivion for the rest of the season? The White Sox can afford to coast a bit with a 12 game lead in their division, but remain razor sharp.
