This is the fourth episode of the Morning Lineup podcast. Every weekday morning we’ll give you everything to know about the day in baseball, always in less than 10 minutes.

On today’s episode …

ACT 1: THE BIG STORIES (0:53-5:44)

Colton Cowser, the man behind the “Moo” movement in Baltimore, smashed a go-ahead homer to power the O’s to their 6th straight win, while Padres rookie Jackson Merrill, at 21 years, 54 days old, became the youngest player all time to record two home runs in a game, with one of them a walk-off blast. 

ACT 2: WHIPAROUND (5:46-8:26)

In other fun moments on a busy day of ball, the Twins erupted for 24 hits and 17 runs to outslug the Rockies, while Giancarlo Stanton crushed his 17th homer – a 449-foot, two-run blast as the Yankees cruised past the Royals.

ACT 3: LOOKING AHEAD (8:31-9:35)

Tonight promises to be quite a duel at Fenway as Red Sox righty Tanner Houck and his AL-leading 1.91 ERA matches up against the Phillies, who will go with the 8-2 Aaron Nola in the series rubber match.
