M’s 2, Rangers 1
- And so the winning streak ends at 1.
- On the plus side, at least it was close.
- Spencer Howard made the start for Texas, tandeming with Taylor Hearn, and threw three shutout innings, allowing a pair of hits and no walks, striking out three.
- Howard threw 44 pitches, and of those, 33 were four-seamers. That’s a high percentage, it seems to me, of four seamers. That said, nine of the other eleven pitches he threw were balls, so maybe that was the one pitch he could throw for strikes on Wednesday.
