Weekend baseball!

We’re ten days into the season, and all perfect streaks have officially ended – thanks to the Phillies and Cubs for bringing the Padres and Dodgers back down to earth. Even that superhuman Dodgers roster has shown they’re at least somewhat mortal… for now.

Meanwhile, the Braves have finally snapped their seven-game losing streak to start the season. If you’re looking for someone to thank, direct your gratitude toward the Marlins.

The weekend is here, which means we’re blessed with plenty of baseball action, as we will be for the next several months (I say that with a smile because oh, how I’ve missed you, baseball). Here’s your guide to all of Saturday’s games across the league.

MLB Games to watch out for on April 5

Dodgers @ Phillies

All eyes will be on Citizens Bank Park as Roki Sasaki faces Aaron Nola in what promises to be a pitching spectacle. After Sasaki’s meltdown in his last outing, the rookie phenom has something to prove against the Phillies, who already demonstrated they can crack the Dodgers’ seemingly impenetrable armor. Can Philadelphia further expose the reigning champs’ mortality?

Padres @ Cubs

The Padres emerged as baseball’s early-season surprise, flirting with perfection until Chicago played spoiler. Now they meet again at Wrigley Field in what’s becoming an unexpectedly compelling rivalry.

Rays @ Rangers

The spotlight is on Arlington as Jacob deGrom takes the mound for Texas. Every deGrom start remains a must-watch event, especially as he continues his comeback journey.

Yankees @ Pirates

Can the Yankees’ torpedo bats continue to keep a bright offense running? Marcus Stroman will take the mound.

Marlins @ Braves

After helping Atlanta end their nightmare start, Miami now looks to spoil the Braves’ attempt at building momentum.

For Atlanta, this series is a critical opportunity to prove their early-season struggles were merely a fluke despite some serious roster problems.

Blue Jays @ Mets

As always, all eyes on Juan Soto.
