MLB Lineups Today: Complete Batting Orders and Starting Pitchers for Yankees vs. Athletics, Rangers vs. Tigers & More

Friday’s MLB slate brings a full 15-game schedule loaded with intriguing storylines, including a visit from the New York Yankees to West Sacramento. The Yankees face the Athletics at Sutter Health Park, a temporary home that’s quickly earned a reputation for high-scoring affairs. New York sends Will Warren to the mound, while the surprisingly competitive A’s counter with Osvaldo Bido.

Meanwhile, Tarik Skubal takes center stage in Detroit, continuing his breakout season against the Rangers. With both the Tigers and Rangers navigating crowded divisional races, tonight’s matchups could quietly shift early playoff outlooks.
