May 15 schedule and broadcast lineup
All 15 games span the three leagues and appear on a blend of national and regional networks. Fox carries the New York‑Boston rivalry, ESPN and MLB Network pick up select West Coast contests, and streaming is available via MLB.TV and each network’s app.
Key matchups that could shift the playoff picture
New York Yankees host Boston Red Sox at Yankee Stadium, a classic AL East showdown with both clubs within two games of the division lead. Los Angeles Dodgers travel to San Diego to face the Padres, seeking to widen their NL West advantage; a loss would keep San Diego within striking distance.
Fantasy implications of today’s games
Starting pitchers Gerrit Cole and Walker Buehler open early, offering strikeout potential for hitters who thrive against elite arms. Power bats Aaron Judge and Juan Soto face bullpens with sub‑190 ERA+ ratings, a scenario that often translates into multi‑run outings and valuable fantasy points.
Team outlooks after today’s slate
Yankees manager Aaron Boone intends to rely on a late‑inning bullpen that has helped New York win 62% of games when relievers hold opponents under two runs after the fifth. A win would push the Yankees two games ahead of Toronto in the AL East.
Dodgers skipper Dave Roberts eyes a sweep of the Padres, knowing a victory would expand Los Angeles’ cushion to four games. Mookie Betts, batting .312 with 12 triples, is positioned to spark the middle of the lineup, while the bullpen’s 2.89 ERA this month underscores depth.
