It is 80° and thunderstorms are looming, but there is a rubber match to be had at 35th and Shields this afternoon.
Lance Lynn is looking to build on his May success and end the month winning five of his six starts. The right-handed pitcher threw six innings in Detroit on Friday. His ERA is still sitting at a hefty 5.83, but if he can limit damage from heavy hitters Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani, he might be OK.
The key for Lynn this afternoon will be locating his pitches and limiting walks. The key for his defense will be to not extend innings.
