Preview Roundups
August 30, 2020
NY Mets at NY Yankees 1:05 PM ET
For most of the past two weeks, the New York Yankees spent postgame media sessions discussing frustrating things such as not getting a timely hit or making key pitches. Those topics were discussed following seven straight games, putting the Yankees on the verge of their longest skid in 25 years.

Sunday's finale of this weekend's three-game series between the Tampa Bay Rays and the host Miami Marlins is set to feature a big-time pitching matchup.

More than halfway through this shortened 2020 season, the Cincinnati Reds are still looking to win a home series.
Minnesota at Detroit 1:10 PM ET
Miguel Cabrera's bat is showing signs of life and so are the Detroit Tigers.

Kansas City at Chi. White Sox 2:10 PM ET
In a normal year, Kansas City Royals rookie Kris Bubic probably wouldn't have made his major league debut by this point in the season.

Long balls are in vogue for the host Milwaukee Brewers and Pittsburgh Pirates midway through their four-game series at Miller Park.

Shohei Ohtani will be in the starting lineup Sunday afternoon for the Los Angeles Angels against the Seattle Mariners in Anaheim, Calif., likely hitting in the No. 2 spot in the order.
