Recap Roundups
April 12, 2017
NY Yankees 8, Tampa Bay 4
Aaron Judge is someone whose size makes him a candidate for fans and teammates to anticipate his next swing and see how far he can drive a ball.
Detroit 5, Minnesota 3
Andrew Romine got a visit from an unexpected guest at his locker after hitting the first grand slam of his eight-year career.

Chi. White Sox 2, Cleveland 1
Talk about home sweet home.
Cincinnati 9, Pittsburgh 2
It took until the fifth inning for the Cincinnati Reds to finally get to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday; but, when they did, they broke through in a big way.
NY Mets 5, Philadelphia 4
After a long road to recovery from Tommy John surgery that forced him to miss two seasons, New York Mets pitcher Zack Wheeler finally got a little validation Wednesday night in the form of his first win since 2014.
Milwaukee 2, Toronto 0
It was all about timing for the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday night.
Atlanta 5, Miami 4

Baltimore 12, Boston 5
The Baltimore Orioles said they felt they had something to prove after a dismal performance Tuesday in a blowout loss to the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park.
Baltimore 12, Boston 5
Rookie Trey Mancini hit two of Baltimore's five home runs in the first three innings and the Orioles pounded out 17 hits en route to a 12-5 victory over the Red Sox on Wednesday night.
LA Dodgers 2, Chi. Cubs 0
A tricky easterly wind did batters no favors Wednesday, but Los Angeles Dodgers left fielder Andrew Toles still found a way to deliver.
Oakland 8, Kansas City 3

Texas 8, LA Angels 3
With his club's recent struggles out of the bullpen, Texas Rangers manager Jeff Banister was open to suggestions. Namely, anyone who could get outs in the late innings and finish a game with a lead intact.
Houston 10, Seattle 5
it just took a couple innings.
San Francisco 6, Arizona 2
Matt Cain enjoyed a pitching win and a standing ovation, and he managed to squeeze in a decent Madison Bumgarner impression with a bat in his hands.
