SAN FRANCISCO -- Former first-round draft picks will duel on the mound for the second consecutive game Saturday night when the Baltimore Orioles and San Francisco Giants continue their interleague series.Orioles right-hander Kevin Gausman, the No. 4 overall pick of the 2012 draft, and Giants left-hander Madison Bumgarner, who went 10th overall in 2007, will square off where Baltimores Dylan Bundy (fourth overall, 2011) got the better of San Franciscos Matt Cain (25th overall, 2002) in the series opener Friday.Gausman has never faced the Giants in his four-year major league career, and his early ventures into interleague play generally have not been pleasant. Hes 1-4 with a 5.22 ERA in seven starts against National League competition.Only five pitchers who have made at least seven starts have a worse interleague record over that stretch.Gausman got a no-decision in his only previous interleague start this season. He was roughed up for four runs on eight hits over five innings in a 6-4 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on July 6.The 25-year-old has allowed two or fewer runs in four of five games against American League competition since then, although he has a losing record (2-3) to show for it.He will be looking to follow in the footsteps of fellow elite prospect Bundy, who limited the struggling Giants to just three hits and one run in 5 2/3 innings in the series opener.The Giants have alternated wins and losses in their last seven games, totaling just four runs in the four losses.Good start to the series, Orioles manager Buck Showalter assessed. Gutty effort by Dylan. He battled tonight, gave us a chance to win.Bumgarner, meanwhile, will be seeking to extend his streak of consecutive interleague starts without a loss to six. Hes 1-0 in four starts against AL teams this season, having allowed more than two runs in a game just once.The last time Bumgarner lost an interleague game was more than a year ago -- July 31, 2015 at Texas.Hes never faced the Orioles in his eight-year career thats included 20 interleague starts. The only other teams Bumgarner has never pitched against are the Chicago White Sox and Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.Bumgarner hasnt won since July 10, a stretch of five games in which hes allowed six home runs.The series matches the major league leader in homers (the Orioles, with 174) against the NL leader in homers allowed since the All-Star break (the Giants, with 37 in 25 games).Orioles slugger Mark Trumbo added to both those totals in the series opener Friday, taking Cain deep for his 33rd home run of the season. First baseman Chris Davis also homered, his 24th.Trumbo had a home run against Bumgarner last season as a member of the Arizona Diamondbacks.Giants catcher Buster Posey noted after the loss that he knows what to expect from Bumgarner. The question is: Will the San Francisco offense do enough to support him?We have the ability to get on a good streak. Thats the way we got to look at it, he noted. We have to look and say tomorrow is the day we get it going.

These are not the losing Bengals of the 90s anymore; they win, and they win often. But until they can prove they can do it in the postseason too, theyll likely remain in the middle of the franchise rankings.Whats goodDespite five straight playoff berths, the Bengals continue to remain one of the most affordable tickets in the league. Their average ticket price last season was around $71, cheaper than all but eight teams in the NFL. (Added bonus: A $5 beer is the cheapest in the league.) They also hold training camp at their facility, meaning fans in Cincinnati can see them for free in the summer. For a team that has consistently put together winning seasons, its one of the best value buys a fan could get.Whats badFans say the stadium -- ranked 95th in the Ultimate Standings -- has little character andd feels like an ode to concrete.dddddddddddd Although it was built in 2000, its been quickly passed up with 14 new stadiums built since then (and No. 15, the Falcons new stadium, on the way) and now feels a little dated in some ways. Theres hope for 2017, though: Last year, the Bengals put $20 million in improvements into their stadium, including new HD video screens, and this year added a field-level bar that faces the Bengals locker room.Whats newThe Bengals ownership preaches loyalty and consistency -- theyve stuck with coach Marvin Lewis for 14 seasons -- and so far that has paid off. The team rarely brings in splashy free agents, instead choosing to build through the draft, selecting future Pro Bowlers A.J. Green, Tyler Eifert, Andy Dalton, Geno Atkins, Vontaze Burfict, Carlos Dunlap and Andrew Whitworth. The Bengals havent been able to translate that to success in the postseason yet, but theyve quietly become one of the leagues most consistent and stable franchises. Fans havent missed that: They gave the Bengals owners a 38-spot bump this year.Next: Tampa Bay Buccaneers?| Full rankings Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Wholesale Black NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Womens Jerseys Wholesale NFL Autographed Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic China NFL Jerseys White Cheap NFL T-shirts ' ' '
