Los Angeles Dodgers at Los Angeles Angels Preview 6/19/09
The battle of Los Angeles resumes on Friday night as the Angels host the Dodgers. Late last month it was the Angels winning two of three at Dodger Stadium so the Dodgers will try and return the favor this weekend. It may not be easy considering the Angels are 8-1 against the National League this season.

Toronto Blue Jays at Philadelphia Phillies 6/17/09 ESPN Game
The Toronto Blue Jays are one team that could do without Interleague play. Before last night’s game the Blue Jays were 0-6 in Interleague play this season. “It’s hard to explain. Some teams beat up on you — some teams don’t,” manager Cito Gaston said. Last season the Blue Jays were 8-9 in Interleague play. Usually American League teams beat up on National League teams but that is not the case with Toronto. Only Baltimore, Kansas City and Tampa Bay have worse all-time records in Interleague play than Toronto does.
