Houston heads into Progressive Field for Wednesday’s series finale trying to salvage a split after Tuesday’s 8-5 loss. The Astros are 9-16, last in the AL West, and just 2-10 on the road. Cleveland is 14-11, first in the AL Central, and 8-4 at home. First pitch is set for 1:10 p.m. ET, and the conditions look mild for an April afternoon in Cleveland, with temperatures around 60 degrees and only a light breeze. The game state matters here.

The Orioles and Royals wrap up their three-game set Wednesday afternoon at Kauffman Stadium, with first pitch scheduled for 2:10 p.m. ET. Baltimore comes in at 11-13, third in the AL East, while Kansas City is 8-16 and fifth in the AL Central.

Los Angeles is 11-14, third in the AL West, and trying to stop a four-game slide. The stream is listed on MLB.TV, and the weather setup in Anaheim looks mild, with intervals of clouds and sun and temperatures in the low 70s.

The Athletics head into Wednesday’s series finale at T-Mobile Park with a 13-11 record, first place in the AL West, and wins in the first two games of this set. Seattle is 10-15, fourth in the division, and trying to avoid a home sweep after dropping games by 6-4 and 5-2. First pitch is set for 4:10 p.m. ET, with the game listed on MLB.TV. This is a better spot than it might look at first glance for Oakland. The Athletics are 6-4 in their last 10 and 8-6 on the road, while Seattle is 4-6 in its last 10 even though it has played much better at home than away. The Mariners are 9-7 at T-Mobile Park, but their
