As the MLB season inches closer to its summer stretch, May 22 lines up with a slate of games that feel anything but routine. The spotlight shines on Yankee Stadium, where the Texas Rangers and New York Yankees wrap up their series with a premier pitching duel. Nathan Eovaldi, sporting a sparkling 1.61 ERA, squares off against Carlos Rodon, who’s rediscovered his ace form in the Bronx. With both teams firmly in the playoff hunt and offenses built to punish mistakes, expect tension from first pitch to final out in this morning matinee.
Later in the evening, the AL West heats up as the Seattle Mariners land in Houston to battle the Astros in a clash carrying early postseason vibes. These clubs have traded blows all season in a division where every head-to-head win matters.
