MLB Schedule Wednesday May 12: Yankees and Tigers Playing Double-Header, Phillies and Rockies Doing the Same

The MLB schedule for Wednesday is a baseball lover’s dream as 17 games will played due to some poor weather last night, Rainouts in Detroit and Colorado have led to a pair of double-headers on Wednesday with the Tigers hosting the New York Yankees while the Rockies will face the Philadelphia Phillies in a twin-billing.

New York will be hoping Javier Vazquez can give them a lot more than what he has produced thus far as the disappointing righty has posted a 1-3 record and a 9.78 ERA. He’ll be facing off against Rick Porcello who has managed a 2-3 record with a 7.50 ERA. While game one features a pair of struggling starters, game two looks more like a pitching duel as the Yankees send Phil Hughes to the hill to face Jeremy Bonderman. Hughes has compiled a 4-0 record with a 1.69 ERA while Bonderman has been an anchor in the Tigers pitching staff for several years and is working toward returning to form after an injury-shortened 2009.

In the National League the Philadelphia Phillies will try to stay hot as they play a pair in Colorado. Philadelphia has a 2 ½ game lead in the NL East while the Rockies are floating around .500 but remain a legitimate threat in the NL West. It won’t be easy for Colorado in game one as they face Roy Halladay and then in game two they’ll be dealing with Jamie Moyer.

The Boston Red Sox are looking for a sweep of Toronto and a win would push them ahead of the blue Jays in the AL East but still behind the Yankees and Tampa Bat Rays. Boston has been getting solid hitting and appear to be clicking and they’ll need to string together some wins to stay within striking distance in the division.
