Perhaps this season's premier pitching matchup will easily be overshadowed by Game 6 of the NBA Finals.

So, if you're not planning on coming to the Angels' game tonight, make sure to have it as the remote control's quick switchback because John Lackey and Johan Santana are going to be battling tonight.

Lackey is 3-1 with a 1.83 ERA in six starts after beginning the year on the DL.

Santana, acquired from the Twins over the winter, is 7-4 with a 2.85 ERA and also has the lowest career ERA during interleague play of 2.36.
