Oakland Athletics (9-12) at Seattle Mariners (14-10), 4:10 p.m.

Probable Starting Pitchers: Oakland - Josh Outman (0-0, 5.23) Seattle - Chris Jakubauskas (1-3, 5.23)

The Seattle Mariners will try to keep a distance between themselves and the rest of the American League West when they host the Oakland Athletics this afternoon in the finale of a three-game set at Safeco Field.

Last night, Gregorio Petit knocked in the game-winning run off David Aardsma in the ninth inning, giving Oakland a 3-2 victory over the Mariners at Safeco Field and snapping the Athletics' seven-game losing streak to Seattle dating back to last season.

Andrew Bailey (3-0) was credited with the win with two relief innings behind rookie starter Trevor Cahill, who allowed a run on seven hits in six innings. Michael Wuertz hurled a perfect bottom of the ninth for his second save.

Petit finished 3-for-4, while Jason Giambi had two hits and two RBI for Oakland, which has won four of its last six games.

Russell Branyan had two hits, including a solo home run, for Seattle, which has dropped four of six. Mariners starter Jarrod Washburn threw seven strong innings, charged with a run on five hits and two walks while striking out six.

With Bobby Crosby on second following a walk and stolen base, Aardsma (0-1) allowed a two-out, opposite-field single to Petit. Crosby blew threw the stop sign by the third-base coach as Ichiro Suzuki's throw beat him to the plate. Seattle's Rob Johnson couldn't handle the throw, though, and Crosby barreled over the catcher for the go-ahead run.

Wuertz then capped the win with a 1-2-3 bottom half.

The Mariners will send Chris Jakubauskas to the mound this afternoon in hopes of returning to the win column. Jakubauskas is coming off his best showing of the season, holding the White Sox to just two runs on two hits in eight innings of work on Tuesday. Despite the strong showing, the right-hander was on the losing end of a 2-1 final.

It was the third consecutive loss for Jakubauskas, who has worked as a starter and reliever this season. In fact, his only win came in a relief appearance against Oakland back on April 10. It was the first-ever appearance for the rookie against the A's, and he allowed two runs on two hits in two innings.

The Athletics will counter with Josh Outman, who has also spent time as a starter and in the bullpen this season. Outman opened the year in the A's rotation, but since then he has made two appearances in relief and tossed two scoreless innings.

The young southpaw was ineffective in his season-opening start against this Seattle team, as Outman allowed three runs on six hits and two walks in just 4 1/3 innings of work. It was the second career start for Outman against the Mariners, and the lefty has given up seven runs on 14 hits in 10 1/3 innings of duty versus Seattle.

Oakland captured 10 of the 19 contests with the Mariners last year, but Seattle is 27-16 in the series since the start of the 2007 campaign.

Chicago White Sox (12-11) at Texas Rangers (11-12), 8:05 p.m.

Chicago White Sox (12-11) at Texas Rangers (11-12), 8:05 p.m.

Probable Starting Pitchers: Chicago - John Danks (2-1, 2.74) Texas - Matt Harrison (1-2, 7.89)

Matt Harrison will try to build off his lone victory of the season when he takes the hill tonight for the Texas Rangers, who close out a three-game set against the Chicago White Sox in Arlington.

Harrison tossed seven solid innings in his last start, helping Texas grab a 6-4 win over Baltimore on Monday. In the victory, Harrison allowed four runs on seven hits while striking out three batters. It was the best outing of the year for the southpaw, who opened the campaign with two losses in his first three starts.

This will be the second career start for Harrison against the White Sox. In his only other matchup against Chicago, the 23-year-old was abused for five runs on seven hits in just 2 2/3 innings of work last July.

While Harrison will be looking to build off his first victory, John Danks will try to rebound from his first setback on the season when he toes the rubber this evening for Chicago.

The southpaw was overwhelmed in his last start, allowing the Mariners to score five runs on eight hits in four innings. It was clearly the worst start of the year for Danks, who had allowed just two total runs in his first three matchups.

This will be the third-ever start for Danks against the Rangers. In the two previous outings, the lefty accumulated a 1-1 mark with a mediocre 4.05 earned run average.

On Saturday, Hank Blalock homered and knocked in four runs and the Rangers beat the White Sox, 9-6, in a rain-soaked affair to even this series.

The game was stopped for a total of three hours and 47 minutes, more than the 2:37 actual length of game action.

Brandon McCarthy (3-0) tossed the minimum five innings to get the win, allowing a run on three hits. Ian Kinsler and Omar Vizquel each had two hits and an RBI for Texas, which had dropped two straight coming in.

A. J. Pierzynski hit his seventh career grand slam for the White Sox, but starting pitcher Jose Contreras (0-4) was lit up for seven runs on seven hits and two walks in just 3 1/3 frames for Chicago, which won the opener of this three-game set by a 4-3 score.

White Sox outfielder Jermaine Dye took a pitch on the left wrist in the contest and had to leave. X-rays of Dye's hand were negative, but his status for Sunday's game has yet to be determined.

These two clubs split six meetings last year, with the Rangers winning two of three from Chicago at home.

Cincinnati Reds (12-11) at Pittsburgh Pirates (12-11), 1:35 p.m.

Cincinnati Reds (12-11) at Pittsburgh Pirates (12-11), 1:35 p.m.

Probable Starting Pitchers: Cincinnati - Johnny Cueto (1-1, 2.19) Pittsburgh - Jeff Karstens (1-0, 5.40)

Right-hander Johnny Cueto looks to make it four straight outings without a loss today, when the Cincinnati Reds visit PNC Park for the finale of a three-game weekend series with the Pittsburgh Pirates.

A 23-year-old Dominican, Cueto opened his 2009 season with a 10-2 loss to the Pirates in Cincinnati, but is unbeaten in three starts since - winning once and picking up a pair of no-decisions while throwing 18 2/3 innings.

He blanked the Chicago Cubs on four hits over seven rounds in a 3-0 triumph at Wrigley Field on April 22, then allowed seven hits and a run in seven innings of the Reds' 4-1 loss to Houston on Monday.

In three starts against the Pirates in 2008, Cueto was 2-1 while allowing 18 hits and eight earned runs in 16 innings.

For Pittsburgh, right-hander Jeff Karstens will also try for a fourth straight start without a loss when he takes the mound today.

The 26-year-old has a win and two no-decisions in three trips to the mound this season, defeating Florida on April 21 and getting no verdict against Houston and Milwaukee on April 16 and 27, respectively.

In 15 total innings of work, Karstens has surrendered 12 hits and nine runs.

Karstens has faced the Reds once in his career, dropping a decision last August after allowing seven hits and three earned runs in seven innings.

On Saturday, Andy LaRoche and Ramon Vazquez each had two RBI to help the Pirates take an 8-6 decision over the Reds and even this series.

Nate McLouth went 3-for-5 with three runs scored and an RBI for the Pirates, who snapped a four-game slide, while Nyjer Morgan scored twice.

Bucs starter Ross Ohlendorf (3-2) got the win after he gave up just three runs on six hits with two walks in six innings.

Alex Gonzalez hit a three-run homer for the Reds, who had a two-game winning streak snapped. Adam Rosales had three hits, one run scored and one driven in during the loss.

Micah Owings (1-3) was charged with the loss for Cincinnati after giving up five runs on nine hits in 5 2/3 innings.

These teams split a rain-shortened two-game series earlier in the year, but Pittsburgh is 11-8 in the series since the start of last season.

St. Louis Cardinals (17-8) at Washington Nationals (6-17), 1:35 p.m.

St. Louis Cardinals (17-8) at Washington Nationals (6-17), 1:35 p.m.

St. Louis Cardinals (17-8) at Washington Nationals (6-17), 1:35 p.m.

Probable Starting Pitchers: St. Louis - Kyle Lohse (3-0, 1.97) Washington - John Lannan (0-3, 4.61)

Streaking right-hander Kyle Lohse seeks win No. 4 in his sixth start of the season today, when the St. Louis Cardinals visit Washington for the finale of a four-game series with the host Nationals.

A reclamation project last spring who turned in a surprising 15-win season in 2008 for the Cardinals, Lohse has opened 2009 with three more victories while allowing 25 hits and just seven earned runs in 32 innings.

He's allowed just one earned run over 11 frames in his two most recent outings, shaking off the effects of a sore knee to defeat the New York Mets on April 23 and take a hard-luck no-decision against Atlanta this past Tuesday.

Lohse swept a pair of starts against Washington last season while giving up just eight hits and a run in 12 innings, limiting Nationals hitters to a .200 batting average in those games.

For Washington, lefty John Lannan tries for an initial win of 2009 in his sixth effort of the season today.

The Nationals are 0-5 in games started by the 24-year-old New York native, in which he's pitched at least six innings three times and struck out 18 batters in 27 1/3 innings.

He fell to 0-3 in his most recent start Tuesday at Philadelphia, losing a 7-1 verdict while giving up nine hits and three earned runs in five innings.

Lannan lost a pair of tough starts to the Cardinals last season, allowing St. Louis batters a .239 average on just 11 hits and four earned runs in 12 2/3 innings.

Washington lost the first two games of this series before rebounding on Saturday. Shairon Martis allowed only one run over nine innings and Ryan Zimmerman extended his hitting streak to 21 games as the Nationals defeated the Cardinals, 6-1.

Martis (3-0) yielded just five hits while striking out six without issuing a walk in his first career complete-game for the Nationals, who had lost four of five coming into the contest. Zimmerman finished the game 2-for-4 to extend his Nationals-record hitting streak.

Adam Dunn blasted a three-run homer to pace the Washington offense, while Austin Kearns and Anderson Hernandez each had a pair of hits and an RBI each in the win.

Cardinals starter Joel Pineiro (4-1) failed to become the NL's first five-game winner, giving up four runs -- one earned -- on seven hits and a walk while fanning four in seven innings.

With Cards slugger Albert Pujols given the day off after hitting two homers in the last two games, highly-regarded prospect Colby Rasmus provided his team's only offense by hitting his first career home run for St. Louis, which had won three in a row.

St. Louis won five of six meetings with Washington last season.

Houston Astros (10-14) at Atlanta Braves (11-12), 1:35 p.m.

Houston Astros (10-14) at Atlanta Braves (11-12), 1:35 p.m.

Probable Starting Pitchers: Houston - Wandy Rodriguez (2-2, 1.69) Atlanta - Jo-Jo Reyes (0-1, 4.26)

Steady lefty Wandy Rodriguez hopes for better luck than he's had thus far in 2009 when his Houston Astros wrap up a three-game series with the Atlanta Braves today at Turner Field.

Holder of an earned run average below 2.00 in spite of winning just twice in five starts, Rodriguez enters today's assignment third in the National League in that category after going 9-7 with a 3.54 mark last season.

He downed Cincinnati, 8-3, on Tuesday in his last start, giving up five hits and a run in seven innings.

Overall, in five starts and 32 innings pitched this season, Rodriguez has allowed only 21 hits and six earned runs, while having walked 12 and struck out 27.

He was 1-0 in two starts against the Braves in 2008, giving up 11 hits and three earned runs in 12 1/3 innings.

Meanwhile, California-born lefty Jo-Jo Reyes makes his third start since returning to the majors last month for the Braves today.

A winner in five of 34 major league appearances over 2007 and 2008, Reyes was optioned to Gwinnett of the Triple-A International League on March 26, but was recalled in mid-April when pitcher Blaine Boyer was designated for assignment.

Reyes was tagged for seven hits and five runs in 5 2/3 innings of his season debut on April 18 at Pittsburgh, then bounced back for a quality no-decision against St. Louis on Tuesday. He allowed three hits and a run in seven innings of a 2-1 Atlanta win.

He is 1-1 lifetime in three starts against Houston, having posted a 6.43 ERA in 14 innings.

On Saturday, Lance Berkman hit a solo home run to help the Astros take a 5-1 win over the Braves and even this series.

Hunter Pence went 3-for-4 with a run scored and Ivan Rodriguez had two hits, scored once and drove in a run for the Astros, who have won four of their last six games.

Roy Oswalt started on the mound for Houston, but pitched only one inning due to a lengthy rain delay. He walked a batter and struck out two. Tim Byrdak (1-0) got the win after throwing 2 1/3 scoreless innings.

Jeff Francoeur scored the lone Atlanta run while Jordan Schafer and Kelly Johnson each had two hits for the Braves, who have dropped four of their past six games.

Braves starter Jair Jurrjens gave up one run on four hits in two innings before being removed due to the delay. Buddy Carlyle (0-1) came on afterward and took the loss after yielding three runs -- one earned -- on four hits in three innings.

The Astros hold a slim 11-10 edge in this series since the start of the 2006 season, but the Braves are 7-4 against Houston at Turner Field over that span.
