Rick Scuteri/AP

Some teams are teetering and showing vulnerability. But they remain solidly on the Summer Score. Some have reached triple digits.

The teams have not changed since June, but now we enter August and each day on The Summer Score is now worth 3 points.

The Red Sox, White Sox, Astros, A’s and Rays all added to the Summer Score from the AL.

The Mets, Brewers, Giants, Dodgers and Padres added from the NL.
