Preview: Red Sox at Mariners
Gracenote
Jun 15, 2018
Seattle ace James Paxton has dominated Boston in three career outings and looks to continue the trend when the Mariners host the Red Sox on Friday for the second contest of their four-game series. Paxton is 2-0 with a 0.39 ERA, 0.65 WHIP and .163 batting average against in 23 career innings versus Boston.
Paxton will attempt to cool down a Red Sox squad that prevailed 2-1 in Thursday's series opener for its fourth straight win and 20th in 28 contests. Xander Bogaerts hit the tiebreaking home run in the sixth inning - his 10th blast of the campaign - while J.D. Martinez went 2-for-3 for his fourth multi-hit performance of the month. Seattle's setback was just its third in 14 games as the offense recorded just six hits after scoring 24 runs during a four-game winning streak that came to an end. The Mariners trail first-place Houston by one-half game in the American League West while the Red Sox lead the AL East by one over the New York Yankees.
TV: 10:10 p.m. ET, NESN (Boston), ROOT Northwest (Seattle)
PITCHING MATCHUP: Red Sox RH Rick Porcello (8-3, 3.54 ERA) vs. Mariners LH James Paxton (6-1, 3.02)
Porcello has allowed two earned runs in each of his last three starts, going 2-1 during the stretch. The 29-year-old lost to the Chicago White Sox in his last turn after giving up three runs - two earned - and five hits over six innings. Porcello is 6-5 with a 3.62 ERA in 12 career starts against Seattle and has enjoyed success against Nelson Cruz (6-for-34, homer) while getting hit hard by Denard Span (19-for-48, homer).
Paxton is 5-0 with a 1.87 ERA over his last eight starts and has won six straight decisions overall. The 29-year-old struck out 10 against Tampa Bay in his last turn for his fifth double-digit strikeout effort of the season as he gave up three runs and five hits over seven innings to pick up the win. Paxton is 3-1 with a 2.79 ERA in six home starts this season, holding opposing batters to a .175 average in those contests.
WALK-OFFS
1. The Mariners had posted seven consecutive home victories prior to Thursday's loss.
2. Seattle SS Jean Segura was 0-for-4 in the opener after going 7-for-13 over his previous three contests.
3. Boston LF Andrew Benintendi was hitless in four at-bats Thursday, ending his streak of reaching base safely at 18 consecutive games.
PREDICTION: Mariners 3, Red Sox 1

Preview: Giants at Dodgers
Gracenote
Jun 14, 2018
The Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants each began June with four-game winning streaks, but the arch-rivals appear to be headed in opposite directions based on their performances over the last week. Buoyed by the majors' most powerful offense this month, the Dodgers set their sights on a fourth straight win Friday when they host the opener of a three-game set with the Giants.
Los Angeles has homered 30 times and scored 87 runs in 11 games this month - both the highest marks in the majors entering Thursday's off-day - enabling the defending National League champions to win nine of 11 in June as part of its 19-6 surge since May 17. The Dodgers are 7-0-1 over their last eight series and improved to 4-1 on their current eight-game homestand Wednesday by defeating Texas 3-2 in 11 innings to complete a two-game sweep. San Francisco hasn't crawled more than four games over or five games under .500 all season long but appeared to be on its way to staying above the break-even mark after winning six of its first seven this month. The Giants followed that surge by dropping four of their next five and needed 16 innings Thursday to avoid a four-game sweep in Miami.
TV: 10:10 p.m. ET, NBC Bay Area (San Francisco), SportsNet LA (Los Angeles)
PITCHING MATCHUP: Giants LH Derek Holland (4-6, 4.54 ERA) vs. Dodgers RH Ross Stripling (5-1, 1.65)
Holland hasn't worked more than 6 1/3 innings in any of his 13 turns, but he has been effective in his last two outings, including Sunday's win in Washington when he delivered five scoreless innings in a winning cause. The 31-year-old Ohio native is holding left-handed hitters to a .146 average, but he has registered only three quality starts. Holland has already faced the Dodgers twice this season, giving up a total of nine runs (seven earned) across 8 1/3 frames while recording a loss and a no-decision.
Stripling joined the Dodgers' injury-ravaged rotation in early May and has emerged as the club's best starter, yielding no more than two runs in any of his seven turns since leaving the bullpen for good. The Texas A&M product earned his fifth victory in as many starts Sunday against Atlanta, permitting a pair of solo shots among the four hits he allowed in 6 2/3 frames. Andrew McCutchen is 4-for-6 with a homer versus Stripling, who has tossed 4 2/3 scoreless relief innings against the Giants this season.
WALK-OFFS
1. Dodgers OF Joc Pederson is tied for the major league lead with seven home runs this month while teammate 1B/3B Max Muncy is close behind with six.
2. McCutchen is batting .347 with five homers - including one in each of his last two games - and 15 RBIs over his last 18 contests.
3. Los Angeles' bullpen is 9-4 with a combined 2.95 ERA despite working 110 innings over the past 25 games.
PREDICTION: Dodgers 6, Giants 3
