5) San Francisco Giants @ Colorado Rockies–NBC Sports Bay Area/AT&T–8:40 PM ET

In this NL West Division matchup, the Rockies (+145) host the Giants (-157). The Rockies must be thrilled with the pitching so far from starting pitcher Chad Kuhl, who is 2-1 with an earned run average of 2.88 ERA.

in this AL Central Division matchup, the Royals (+172) host the White Sox (-187). This is the first game of a doubleheader. Even though Kansas City is 4.5 games back of Chicago in the standings, they may have the edge in starting pitching, as Jonathan Heasley has an ERA of 2.70.

3) Detroit Tigers @ Tampa Bay Rays–Bally Sports–6:40 PM ET

The Rays (-268) may be 5.5 games back of the Yankees in the American League East, but they have played very respectable baseball at 21-15. The Tigers (+239) are developing. On Tuesday, we will see Beau Brieske, who is looking for his first MLB win after having a respectable 3.86 ERA in his first four starts.
