Standen MLB per 15 augustus
 | De Los Angeles Dodgers trokken de stijgende lijn van vorige week door om bovenaan de National League West Division te komen. De Central Divisions werden wat spannender door slechte series van de Cardinals en Tigers. De laatsten hebben echter nog altijd een riante voorsprong op de rest van de American League. |
