Toronto starting pitching Scott Richmond looked downright nasty for most of his six innings of work, keeping Texas' hitters off-balance, never allowing them to gather any sort of momentum.
For Texas, Kevin Millwood wasn't bad at all but he wasn't great either, going seven innings, striking out three and allowing four earned runs (off three homeruns). Jason Jennings pitched the 8th, loading the bases (thanks in part to two walks) and allowing another run to score.
Rookie sensation Elvis Andrus made two more throwing errors and now has five errors in only 13 games played. While he's made some amazing plays so far this season, he's also made an adventure out of quite a few routine plays. Andrusis giving Texas far more with the bat than they thought they'd get but he's gotta settle down defensively if he's truly gonna make a difference for this team.
If you're looking for positives both Chris Davis and Josh Hamilton hit solo homeruns, hopefully showing some sign that their season-long slumps might finally be coming to an end.
