The following interleague games will be played in an American League Ballpark.

Arizona Diamondbacks @ Texas Rangers
E. Gonzalez (2-0, 1.64) vs. K. Loe (3-6, 5.57)
- Gonzalez has been a nice surprise for the N.L. West contending Diamondbacks, but it’ll be tough to keep that ERA down against the Rangers who not only have Michael Young, Mark Teixiera, and Hank Blalock as the de riguer threats, but Brad Wilkerson, Gary Matthews, Jr., and Ian Kinsler have been turning it up lately. 

San Diego Padres @ Los Angeles Angels
C. Park (4-3, 4.15) vs. B. Colon (0-2, 7.07)
- Colon makes his first start coming off the DL after a two-month stint.  He probably couldn’t have asked for a better team to pitch against considering that there is no real power threat on the Padres.  All respect due to Brian Giles, Mike Cameron, and Mike Piazza, but they’re getting a bit long in the tooth.  And a sad farewell to Jered Weaver who was optioned down to the minors to make room for Colon.  Trust me, Weaver will be back up at some point and with more seasoning in the minors could actually be better when he returns to the big show.

Los Angeles Dodgers @ Oakland Athletics
A. Sele (3-1, 2.32) vs. J. Blanton (6-6, 5.04)
- I personally love to watch Blanton pitch.  He’s quick, he doesn’t waste time between pitches and tries to dictate his tempo and get the hitter out of his rhythm.  I bet the guys on the field with Blanton must love that he doesn’t waste time.  For the season, Blanton has been inconsistent, but as last season showed, he can get on a very good roll for a very long time.  Just wait for it.

San Francisco Giants @ Seattle Mariners
J. Wright (5-6, 4.48) vs. J. Moyer (3-6, 3.80)
- Moyer just keeps on doing his thing.  The 137-year-old has been pitching well for the most part, but just has been playing with, generally speaking, a disappointing offense.  The Giants continue to dwell in the cell, but still get a lot of coverage because of Barry Bonds and his chase to be the all-time homerun king.  Have you seen Bonds out in the field?  He makes Moyer look like a spry 20-year-old.  Bonds is hurting and I just don’t think he’ll pass Hammerin’ Hank Aaron.

Enjoy the games!  To all the fathers out there like me – HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!
