The Stat Line Of The Night — 8/14/11 — Brandon Belt
With the Arizona Diamondbacks currently in the midst of a six-game winning streak, the San Francisco Giants have suddenly found themselves on the outside of the playoff picture looking in. They needed a win in Florida yesterday afternoon if they wanted to remain only two games out of top spot in the NL West, and [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 8/11/11 — Robinson Cano
Sometimes all you really need is one great at bat to earn yourself a spot on our “Stat Line of the Night.” Robinson Cano proved just that last night, as his New York Yankees played host to the Los Angeles Angels. Cano did manage to record three hits during his four at bats last night, [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 8/10/11 — Brett Lawrie
After going 5-for-11 during his first series in the Major Leagues, Canadian Brett Lawrie failed to record a hit in three at bats during his much anticipated home debut on Tuesday. However, he would make up for that lack of production last night during his second game in front of the fans at the Rogers [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 8/9/11 — Cliff Lee
It may be tough for Cliff Lee to replicate the incredible month he had in June (5-0, 0.21 ERA), but he appears to be on his way towards doing just that in August. After pitching a complete-game shutout during his first start of the month, Lee was dominant once again last night when he took [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 8/7/11 — Jake Peavy
Heading into yesterday afternoon’s game against the Minnesota Twins, Chicago White Sox starter Jake Peavy hadn’t earned a victory since June 25th. After going 0-4 in his last six starts since then, he was looking to put an end to his losing streak and begin a winning streak of his own, and he did just [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 8/4/11 — Cliff Lee
It was a disappointing month of July for Cliff Lee, which saw the Phillies pitcher go 1-2 with a 4.91 ERA in five starts. As he entered the month of August, he was looking to put July’s struggles behind him and regain the form that saw him go 5-0 with a 0.21 ERA in his [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 8/3/11 — Casey McGehee
Casey McGehee entered yesterday afternoon’s game against the St. Louis Cardinals with only five home runs on the season. He nearly doubled that total with a monstrous day at the plate, as he joined an elite list of players who have hit three home runs in a single game this season. The Brewers’ third baseman [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 8/2/11 — Mark Teixeira
Last night’s game between the Chicago White Sox and the New York Yankees was called after seven innings of play, but those seven innings were all Mark Teixeira needed to do his damage. The Yankees’ first baseman entered the game with 29 home runs on the season, good enough for second in the Majors. He [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 8/1/11 — Asdrubal Cabrera
After starting the season on a tear, it has been “back to reality” for the Cleveland Indians over the course of the past couple of months, as they found themselves only one game above .500 heading into last night’s game against the Boston Red Sox. However, they were still only 2.5 games out of top [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 7/31/11 — Justin Verlander
Two of the American League’s hottest pitchers squared off yesterday afternoon at Comerica Park, as Jered Weaver and the Los Angeles Angels visited Justin Verlander and the Detroit Tigers. Both pitchers would remain hot, albeit, in very different ways. Weaver was hot under the collar following the post-home run antics of Magglio Ordonez and Carlos [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 7/28/11 — Mark Trumbo
Wins have become increasingly important for the Los Angeles Angels, as their strong play as of late has helped them climb to within two games of the Texas Rangers for first place in the AL West. With the Rangers earning a win in Minnesota, the Angels needed to do the same in Detroit if they [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 7/27/11 — Ervin Santana
When the Minnesota Twins’ Francisco Liriano and the Detroit Tigers’ Justin Verlander recorded no-hitters four days apart in early May, it appeared as though we were headed for a season full of no-hit games. However, heading into yesterday’s action we hadn’t seen a single pitcher accomplish that feat since Verlander no-hit the Jays on May [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 7/26/11 — C.C. Sabathia
The Seattle Mariners were looking to snap their dreadful 16-game losing streak in New York last night, however, their chances were not looking good as they had to take on starting pitcher C.C. Sabathia, who just so happened to lead the Majors in wins heading into the game, with 14. And you can now add [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 7/25/11 — Ian Kinsler
The Texas Rangers have been having themselves quite the month of July thus far. In addition to putting together a 12-game winning streak, which has helped them compile a 16-5 record this month, they have now also recorded the highest scoring output in the Majors this season following last night’s game against the Minnesota Twins. [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 7/20/11 — Clayton Kershaw
It is well known throughout the Majors that when Tim Lincecum is on the mound for the San Francisco Giants, the opposition isn’t going to be providing their pitcher with much run support. That was the case for the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Clayton Kershaw yesterday afternoon, but luckily for him and his team, one run [...]
