Weekend of the Big Broom
The Memorial Day weekend was a good one for Major League Baseball teams looking to sweep a series from their opponent. There were no fewer than 8 series sweeps over the weekend. These included:
- Angels sweeping the Yankees
- Diamond Backs sweeping the Astros
- Indians sweeping the Tigers
- Mets sweeping the Marlins
- Padres sweeping the Brewers
- Phillies sweeping the Braves
- Red Sox Sweeping the Rangers
- Rockies sweeping the Giants
Obviously a good “holiday” weekend for the winning sides…
